Descripción

This Global Report aims to enhance coordination and decision making through a neutral analysis that informs programming and implementation. The key objective and strength of the report is to establish a consultative and consensus-based process to compile food insecurity analyses from around the world into a global public product. The Report compares and clarifies results of food security analyses conducted by various partners and across geographical areas to provide a clear picture of acute food insecurity situation. The Global Report on Food Crises 2017 covers the period January to December 2016 and provides food security and nutrition analyses from countries that are chronically vulnerable to food crises and have large populations facing acute food insecurity. The key information sources are the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) and the Cadre Harmonisé (CH), wherever these systems are in place. Complementary sources include products from European Union-Joint Researc h Centre, FAO, FEWS NET, Food Security Cluster, SADC Vulnerability Assessment and Analysis UNICEF and WFP. <br/> <p><ul> <li> Read the <a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-br323e.pdf">Global Report on Food Crises 2017</a> </li> </ul></p>
