Food Security Response Analysis driven by FS Analysis Karamoja experience
Current and Projected Situation Analysis Response Analysis Response Planning Response Implementation Monitoring and Evaluation RA starts on the SA outputs IPC focuses on Situation Analysis with strong links to Response Analysis Strong, clear transition wins the race!
Composition of the Response Analysis Team RA is not an IPC business, ? IPC TWG members
IPC February 2013 – Karamoja Region Key for Map Acute Food Insecurity Phase Minimal 1 Stressed 2 Crisis 3 4 Emergency Famine 5 Areas with Inadequate Evidence Not Analyzed Urban/Settlement Area would likely be at least 1 Phase worse without the effects of humanitarian assistance
Beyond the map, manyevidence on FS- Zoom on FS outcomesstatus (Napak case)
Details on some key indicators – Nutrition evidence, GAM & Stunting trend
IPC Analytical Framework – figure for Napak IPC products Food Security Contributing Factors • Non Food Security Specific Contributing Factors: • Disease • Water/Sanitation • Health Social Services • others…. Causal Factors • Vulnerability: (Exposure, Susceptibility, and Resilience to specific hazards events or ongoing conditions). • Livelihood Strategies (food & income sources, coping, & expenditures) • Livelihood Assets (human, financial, social, physical, & natural) • Policies, Institutions, and Processes & Food Security Outcomes (directly measured or inferred from contributing factors) 20 Outcomes Acute Events or Ongoing Conditions (natural, socio-economic, conflict, disease and others) Feedback Mortality Nutritional Status Impact Food Security Dimensions Stability (at all times) 10 Outcomes Availability Production Wild Foods Food Reserves Markets Transportation Access Physical Access Financial Access Social Access Utilization Food Preferences Food Preparation Feeding Practices Food Storage Food Safety Water Access Livelihood Change Assets & Strategies Food Consumption Quantity & Nutritional Quality Classification of Acute Phase (current or projected) and Chronic Level

Karamoja case STEPS FOR RESPONSE ANALYSIS
Step 1 : Understand main issues driving FS outcomes • FS/nutrition issues • Population(s) of concern • Barriers
Step 2: Understand direct, underlying and basic causes of each issue and trends • Information sources: • From IPC products and evidence used for classification (IPC framework helps in this analysis) ; • Key informant interviews • Secondary data ; • Causal analysis • FS contributingfactors; • Underlying direct and basic causes of each issue. • Trends: Brief description and history of the concerned population versus their livelihood : socio-cultural issues, political, habit, main food, education ;
Step 2, example : Understanding the issues leading to current FS and N outcomes WHY ? • Quality/diversity of food • Income resources for poor people • Water access (quality and quantity) • Sanitation • How pastoralists are losing the animals even after a good crop season.
Step 3. Options for solving the identified problem – Opportunities - Strategies • Options (short – mid – long term) ; • Opportunities to achieve each option (existing potential on Livelihoods assets - physical, human, financial, social, natural, cultural, political, experience -) ; • Existing strategies .
Step 4. Implementation of Response Analysis Options, coordination and responsibilities • Key activities /strategies and timing • Existing opportunities • Activities and potentialactors • Coodination issues
Lessons learned • Unit of analysis must bewellidentified : Household groups, district ; • The team of RA must bewelltrained and planning must be good ; • Many FS assues are interconnected, need to understandthis to respondappropriately; • Hugeneed to summarize and sort throughfindings; • Response options are linked: short to long term; • Need to have a furtherstepbetweensteps 3 & step 4 – Gap analysis.
