NFI Issues in the cluster Shelter cluster Yemen has registered over 160 members, most of them being national, provincial or local. Non-Food items is representing around 140 000 Households assisted 700 000 persons-. This figure is still increasing. Many national & local partners are involved in NFI distribution. Problem of financial support for distribution. Huge discrepancy in terms of quality and cost the market is sufficient for items with minimum requirement Parallel systems are existing with big disparities in term of kit composition and quality: a) Shelter Cluster contingency stock b) IOM RCT (OCHA) contingency stocks c) Small organizations struggling to compose complete kit https://www.sheltercluster.org/response/yemen / yemen_sheltercluster / @ShelterClustYE
NFI Structural change in the cluster 1. In 2020, Shelter Cluster introduced a weekly warehouse reconciliation report to monitor all stock level in country. 36 warehouses of the 9 key organizations are participating in reporting items available. Shelter Cluster presented the intention to shift to a common pipeline in order to ensure items quality, cost efficiency and reinforce clarity of procurement. With the unexpected flooding, (almost 500 000 individuals affected), Shelter Cluster introduced #72hoursresponse to mobilize contingency stock. 2. 3. https://www.sheltercluster.org/response/yemen / yemen_sheltercluster / @ShelterClustYE
