Context:• Individual situations, behavioural responses >> building up to
an understanding of system-wide effects
What’s useful?• Situating / triangulating in-depth qualitative findings• Self-reported experiences of food security outcomes• Understanding transitory/acute food insecurity as well as
chronic FI• Capturing impacts of shocks on malnourishment as well as
undernourishment• (Preferences / adaptations)
UNDERSTANDING LIVED EXPERIENCES

PROGRAMME / RESPONSE DESIGN
• Household Economy Analysis• Rapid appraisals• IPC (Integrated Food Security Phase Classification)
What’s useful?• Determinants as well as outcomes• Early warning• Understanding chronic as well as acute stressors
Page 8
MORE USEFUL LESS USEFUL• Scalable• Internationally comparable• Individual disaggregation
• esp. by gender• Timely
• able to capture transitory, seasonal FI as well as chronic FI
• Conceptual clarity• maps to / transcends
availability, access, utilisation, stability domains
• SOFI suite• VOH (?)
• Proliferation / duplication• Indices with arbitrary /
opaque weightings• Easily misused,
misinterpreted
• Displacing rich qualitative analysis
