Yemen has been in conflict since 2015. Justice institutions remain state-centric, lacking service capacity. Community platforms provide a type of people-centered justice via customary and informal pathways, which requires inclusive representation and institutional linkages. Housing, Land, and Property (HLP) disputes are particularly challenging, occupying nearly 85 percent of court cases. Forced eviction disproportionately affects vulnerable groups, inflicting injustice especially on widows and orphans. The project works towards three outputs through a “people-centered approach to institution-building”:

• Output 1: Civil and property justice promoted.

• Output 2: Gender and inclusive justice enhanced.

• Output 3: Comprehensive detainee protection expanded.
