ProjectImproving Evidence-Based Decision-Making on Food Insecurity and Malnutrition at Global, Regional and Country Levels - GCP/GLO/494/UK 2022
Also available in:
No results found.Despite significant progress made in recent decades, millions of people around the world are still affected by food insecurity and acute and chronic malnutrition. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID 19) pandemic has exacerbated these issues globally. Early warning information allows for the detection of crisis “hotspots” and leads to anticipatory action, which has been shown to save lives, preserve livelihoods, and increase the cost effectiveness of humanitarian resources. In order to inform evidence based decision making for early intervention when crises hit, a set of standardized tools known as the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) was developed in 2004 to assess the severity and magnitude of food insecurity in a given country or area. This project was formulated within the framework of the IPC Global Strategic Programme (GSP) 2019 2022. It supported: the overall structure of the IPC Global Support Unit (GSU); activities for the technical development, quality assurance and institutionalization of IPC; and the achievement of project specific deliverables for IPC capacity development and quality assurance at field level. -
DocumentDeveloping capacities on climate change impact assessment in agriculture in a perspective of decision-making support at national level: case study 2013
Also available in:
No results found.The national production of essential crops such as cereals is highly exposed to climatic risks since they are mainly produced in arid and semi-arid lands, characterized by limited soil and water resources to satisfy crop growth requirements. Given the high economic weight of agriculture on the Moroccan economy (15 to 20% of NGP and 40% employment), any eventual temporal or seasonal variation of the climate will immediately effect national economy and food security. Quantitative analyses are key to understand the processes at stake and formulate adapted measures.
