Provision of Shelter and NFI emergency and durable solutions to reduce protection risks and improve living conditions for the most vulnerable IDPs and Returnees in Khanfir district in Abyan Governorate, and Mawza and Al-Wazi`iyah districts in Taiz Governorate. Ongoing conflict in certain areas of Yemen has caused its residents to flee leaving behind their most valuable possessions to live in temporary settlements most often in open areas with no shelter or any means of dignity. Here is where humanitarian actors responsibility lies. 

NMO will manage the distribution of Non-Food Items (NFIs )  and Emergency Shelter Kits (ESKs) for 400 newly displaced households affected by conflicts or natural disaster, these kits will be aligned with the shelter cluster’s standards. Additionally, shelter maintenance and repair will be provided through the provision of materials that NMO will procure, and the 300 Households will be targeted for rehabilitation to their own shelters and NMO will provide cash after the beneficiary completes the maintenance work. 
The Shelter maintenance activity will be through 2 installment cash transfer for the IDPs.
The house rehabilitation will be done through an engineering assessment of the damage to the house to estimate the cost of the rehabilitation which will be given to the beneficiary in 3 installments depending on the level or achievement of the rehabilitation as this activity will be directly done by the beneficiary and NMO’s role will be monitoring the work and providing guidance.
This activity will target 140 houses in. 

The first cluster objective is aligned to the first strategic objective and focuses on delivering life-saving shelter/NFI assistance to newly displaced people who are affected by the ongoing conflict and emerging natural disasters, as well as the prepositioning of NFIs and emergency shelter kits (ESKs) contingency stocks in key governorates. 
The second cluster objective, which is aligned to the second strategic objective, focuses on enhancing the affected people's resilience through medium- and long-term shelter solutions, improving sub-standard conditions through the provision of sustainable and accessible shelter and NFI options to people affected by protracted crises, returnees, and the vulnerable host community.
