The Yemen International Forum (YIF) is the Sana’a Center’s flagship Forum and the largest convening on Yemen since the National Dialogue Conference.

Launched in 2022, The YIF is an inclusive, multistakeholder dialogue process that brings together a diverse range of Yemeni actors, including political leaders, policymakers, civil society representatives, tribal figures, private sector representatives, researchers, youth leaders, and women leaders, alongside regional and international diplomats, policymakers, mediators, and peace practitioners.

By creating a space for sustained dialogue across sectors and stakeholders, the Forum advances discussions on peace, governance, economic recovery, security, and regional collaboration. The YIF seeks to support and complement ongoing peace efforts while ensuring that Yemeni perspectives, local knowledge, and innovative policy solutions are reflected in national, regional, and international conversations on Yemen’s future.
