Session 3.2.Situation Analysis Step 3Profiling Households at Risk
Learning Objectives After this session, participants should be able to: • Identify the aims of and reasons for profiling the food insecure and those at risk • Explain the methodology of profiling an affected population – through crossing with key population characteristics, and of the Conceptual framework
Why?Why do we profile food (in)secure HHs? • Describe livelihood assets, strategies and outcomes of food (in)secure HHs • Understand factors associated with food insecurity and with risks to lives and livelihoods • Define easily recognisable characteristics that can be used to target those at-risk
How? How is profiling done? Cross (-tabulating) food (in)secure HHs against: • location • sex & age of head of HH • HH size • dependency ratio • education level • status (e.g. resident, IDP etc.) • main livelihood activity (livelihood groups) • main coping strategies • assets owned • other key characteristics relevant to context
Why are people food insecure and why are their lives or livelihoods at risk? Analysis of factors associated with food insecurity and with risks to lives or livelihoods: • use contextual analysis (secondary data + primary data) and HH profiling • use Conceptual Framework - adapted to local context to understand linkages

Exercise 3.2.bIdentifying characteristics of food-insecure HHs & individuals whose lives & livelihoods are at risk • What other information should be analyzed to profile HHs in this country? • Which information would help in targeting?
