Over the past five years, war in Yemen has killed thousands of civilians, devastated communities and infrastructure and brought untold suffering. A staggering 80 percent of the population need humanitarian aid.

Women and girls have been disproportionately affected because of negative gender norms. Families have adopted drastic coping strategies just to survive.

For instance, cases of early marriage have been reported in families who say they have no other recourse for keeping their daughters safe or supporting them.

But despite this, women are speaking up, and demanding an end to war and a place at the peace table.
