Resumen
Descripción
The FAO’s measure of food deprivation, the prevalence of undernourishment, is conceptually based on a comparison of dietary energy intake (DEI) with a normed minimum energy requirement which is compatible with a healthy life while performing light physical activity, taking into account the inequality in access to food. The inequality is expressed in terms of the biological variation and non-biological variation among individuals in the population.
