• Food Security and Nutrition Situation

Percent of parents or caregivers who report that there were one or more hungry months in the previous 12 months for the household, where food was scarce or unavailable, like an empty granary. Food security has three components - availability, access and utilization. This indicator measures household food provisioning as a proxy measure of household food access. Household food access is defined as the ability to acquire sufficient quality and quantity of food to meet all household members' nutritional requirements for productive lives. This household food access impact indicators is months of adequate household food provisioning (MAHFP). Data for this indicator are collected by first screening out those households that were able to provide for their household food needs throughout the entire year. Those households that were unable to adequately provide for the household then go on to question number two where they are asked to identify in which months (during the past 12 months) they did not have access to sufficient food to meet their household needs. The purpose of these questions is to identify the months in which there is limited access to food regardless of the source of the food (for example, production, purchase, barter or food aid). The questions refer to the food needs of the household as a whole, not any single member of the household.
