About the Organization

Food4Humanity is a women-led, nonprofit, civil society organization based in Yemen and established in 2015 by Muna Luqman. The organization was founded by Yemeni women volunteers working in the areas most affected by famine, humanitarian crises and violent extremism.

In addition to humanitarian aid, Food4Humanity strives to strengthen community resilience against radicalization and support livelihood initiatives. It also conducts advocacy calling for the cessation of hostilities in Yemen and an inclusive peace with equal participation and representation in the peace process.

ICAN’s Innovative Peace Fund has supported Food4Humanity since 2018.

Core Areas of Work:

  • Peacemaking
  • Crises and Climate
  • Security Sector

Stories & Features

Investing in women should also be prioritized as it brings significant benefits. Local women’s groups are a key means of accessing remote areas and understanding the local context. They are doing so much peacebuilding and relief work but despite their contribution to peace and combating violent extremism, and resilience-building strategies their work remains undervalued and under-resourced.
