Title: Session 1.2. WFP Conceptual Framework: Food and Nutrition Security


1
Session 1.2.WFP Conceptual Framework Food
and Nutrition Security
2
Learning objectives
  • After this session, participants should be able
    to
  • Describe key concepts of WFP Conceptual Framework
    of Food and Nutrition Security
  • Adapt and apply the Conceptual Framework to
    identify key factors that affect food security
    and nutrition in a given context

3
Where are we?
EFSA Process
Adapt conceptual framework objectives
Prepare analysis plan indicators, data, sources
Collect, review secondary data
Collect primary data
Conduct situation analysis
Conduct forecast analysis
Analyse response options
Make response recommendations
Prepare report
4
Conceptual Framework
  • Informs selection of indicators for analysis
    use in targeting
  • Guides design of data collection analysis
  • Considers food availability, access utilisation
    as core determinants of FS

5
Conceptual Framework
  • Provides
  • basis for developing initial hypotheses on
    emergency
  • way to visualise relationships among factors
    affecting FNS

6
Main objectives of an EFSA
  • To determine risks for the population
  • life-threatening risks, e.g., malnutrition,
    disease
  • risks to livelihoods, e.g., loss of assets that
    endanger present , future livelihoods
  • and what to do about them

7
Specific objectives of EFSA
  • To identify
  • who is food insecure and/or malnourished, and how
    severe is food insecurity whose lives or
    livelihoods are at risk
  • main causes of food insecurity malnutrition
    including chronic/transitory issues
  • need for, and type of, interventions to address
    food insecurity and malnutrition to save lives
    protect/strengthen livelihoods

8
WFP Food and Nutrition Security Conceptual
Framework Key concepts
  • Livelihoods
  • Food security
  • Nutrition security

9
1 - Livelihoods
  • livelihoods approach examines
  • impact of shock on human, financial, social,
    physical, natural, assets
  • impact of policies, institutions, other processes
  • strategies the affected are using to survive
  • tries to determine likely outcomes for the
    affected changes in vulnerability, food /
    nutrition security status, etc.

10
Example of household livelihood analysis
  • Livelihood strategies
  • HH use strong social assets to get loans
  • rent land buy tools agric. inputs
  • HH use human assets to farm to offset low
    financial, natural assets

11
How are livelihoods affected?
  • Resilience
  • Vulnerability

Extent to which households can withstand shock
12
2 - Food security
  • Availability
  • Access
  • Utilisation

when all people, at all times, have physical and
economic access to sufficient, safe and
nutritious food to meet their dietary needs, and
food preferences for an active and healthy life
13
3 - Nutrition security
  • Food security
  • Health
  • Caring practices

Acute malnutrition clear sign of risk to
life Chronic malnutrition long-term problems
related to food, health and care
14
UNICEF Conceptual Framework of malnutrition
Outcomes Immediate causes Underlying causes at
household level Basic causes at societal level
15
WFP Conceptual Framework of Food and Nutrition
Security
16
Conceptual Framework levels of analysis (1)
Basic causes structural factors that establish
the context in which malnutrition and food
insecurity exist
17
Conceptual Framework levels of analysis (2)
Underlying causes characteristics of individual
households that make them more, or less,
susceptible to malnutrition and food insecurity
18
Conceptual Framework levels of analysis (3)
Immediate causes factors that can lead
directly to malnutrition and death
19
Conceptual Framework levels of analysis (4)
Outcomes malnutrition and excess mortality
arising from failure to resolve problems at other
levels
20
Adapting the Conceptual Framework
Why?
  • The relative significance of each framework
    element depends on region country, nature of
    crisis, affected groups
  • Adapting it to local context allows formulation
    of initial hypotheses on probable local effects
    of crisis

21
Adapting the Framework How?
  • Review secondary info discussions with key
    informants
  • Identify factors most likely to affect FSN in
    current context
  • Identify possible linkages among factors
    affecting food nutrition security

initial hypotheses
definition of information requirements
selection of assessment methodology
22
Exercise 1.1.Adapt the Conceptual Framework
  • Use Worksheet for each Working Group
  • 45 min 60 min debriefing

23
Wrap-up
  • The Framework
  • Provides basis for development of initial
    emergency hypotheses, causes effects
  • Helps to visualize relationships between factors
    affecting food nutrition security
  • Guides data collection analysis
