Also available in:
No results found.This brochure is one output from a two-year Technical Cooperation Programme Project, on strenghtening the national capacities of Pacific Island Countries (PICs) to monitor SDG Target 2.1 using information collected in their most recent or ongoing national Household Income and Expenditure Survey (HIES). Country profiles on the State of food security and nutrition in each of the targeted countries aims to exploit as much as possible the food data collected in HIES, to derive indicators on food security and nutrition at national level that could inform policies aiming at fighting root causes of Non Communicable Diseases. The Food Security Profile also provides a wealth of information on dietary energy consumption, food sources, food costs and nutritional adequacy of I-Kiribati. The production of the Food Security Profile was a joint collaboration between the Kiribati National Statistics Office, the Pacific Community (SPC) and the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO). -
