The Intervention Logic"}, {"bbox": [83, 149, 1149, 284], "category": "Text", "text": "The underlying intervention logic for this action is that the lack of employment and income is a key driver of local conflicts in Yemen. Increasing income opportunities can thus have a positive impact on conflict dynamics. At the same time, women's employment has proven to be an area in which progress is possible and which is less sensitive than some other aspects of women's rights. Therefore, it will be important to build on advances in this area and to ensure that any progress is sustained and not reversed in a future post-conflict setting."}, {"bbox": [83, 308, 1149, 359], "category": "Text", "text": "The proposed Action aims to support early economic recovery in Yemen, through three mutually reinforcing work streams:"}, {"bbox": [122, 362, 1149, 539], "category": "List-item", "text": "1.
