> A Universal Court with Global Support > Ratification and Implementation > Universal Ratification Campaign > URC - Yemen URC - Yemen  Credit: Nations Online To date, the MENA region is the most underrepresented region at the ICC. The Arab League, consisting of 22 Arabic-speaking states, has only 3 States Parties to the Rome Statute – Jordan, Djibouti, and the Comoros Islands. The MENA region also has 11 signatories (Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Israel, Kuwait, Morocco, Oman, Syria, UAE and Yemen). Yemen signed the Rome Statute on 28 December 2000 and the Yemeni Coalition for the ICC is one of 11 Coalitions in the MENA region. The Yemeni Coalition for the ICC and the Gulf Coalition for the ICC have been very active in the Yemen has brought Yemen closer to ratification of the Rome Statute. The region has a growing human rights movement and the Coalition today has over 300 active member organizations spread across almost every country in the region. Through its strengthened regional efforts targeting civil society, parliamentarians, governments, media, and others, the Coalition is pushing for an increased number of ratifications and full implementation of the Rome Statute in all MENA countries. The Coalition therefore appeals to Yemen to ratify the Rome Statute and to fully support this first permanent, independent court capable of investigating and bringing to justice individuals who commit the most serious violations of international law, namely war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide.
