Section A: Area and HH Analysis Group Definitions

SteP 1: Area Description, HH Analysis Group Definitions, and Map

Brief Area and Livelihood Description

Map and Seasonal calendar of Analysis Area

(insert image of map identifying spatial extent of analysis area and seasonal calendar indicating major seasons and

annual events)

estimated # of People in Area (specify source of pop. data)

CurrentProjected (with assumed

in and out migration)

chronic Food insecurity Level for the area (if available)

HH Analysis Group (HAG) Definitions

{ Identify groups of relatively homogenous households with regard to their food security situation (consider contributing factors and likely outcomes). These HH Analysis Groups will be analysed independently for their respective Phase Classifications.

{ The number of groups will depend upon analytical needs, data availability and desired level of precision.

Section B: classification conclusions and Justification

SteP 4: HH Analysis Group (HAG) classification conclusions – Classify each HH Analysis Group and estimate number and percentage of people in various IPC Phases based on convergence of evidence (from STEP 3). If a single HH Analysis Group is determined to have 2 or more distinct Phases of Household Groups, then indicate partial percentages and numbers.

SteP 5: Phase classification conclusions. – Combine different HH Analysis Groups with the same Phase. If analysis is Area-based only, complete for only the one applicable Phase, and for “estimated # of people and %” use the cumulative number of people in the Area Phase plus people in worse Phases.

SteP 6: Humanitarian Assistance impact (e.g. humanitarian/disaster relief). – write a brief statement generally describing the type, timing and coverage of assistance to the extent possible. Assess effects of assistance on Phase classification.

SteP 8: Limiting Factors Matrix Specify if for current or Projected: __________________ HH Analysis Group: _____________________________

{ Based on guiding question, indicate the degree to which Availability, Access or Utilization is a limiting factor to people being food secure in the short term.

{ Shade/Colour that cell accordingly and write a brief evidence justification on the cause and effects inside of the cell.

{ Note gender issues and differences where relevant.

Food AvailabilityGuiding Question: Is sufficient food actually or

potentially physically present?

(Consider national and local production, imports, markets, and natural source; and note in the

justification as relevant).

Food AccessGuiding Question: Are households able to sufficiently

access food?

(Consider aspects of physical, financial, and social access, and note in the justification as relevant).

Food UtilizationGuiding Question: Are households making effective

use of food which they have access to?

(Consider aspects of preferences, preparation, storage, and water; and note in the justification as relevant).

Extreme Limiting Factor

No(write brief justification)



Major Limiting Factor

Somewhat, but very little and/or unreliable(write brief justification)



Minor Limiting Factor

Yes, but not quite enough and/or erratic supply(write brief justification)



Not a Limiting Factor

Yes(write brief justification)

Section D: evidence Documentation and Analysis

SteP 3: Key evidence and conclusions for contributing Factors and outcomes { Document key evidence statement. For each key evidence statement: (i) Indicate Document Code (DC) to link to the Evidence Repository Template; and (ii) Specify reliability score for each evidence statement: 1=somewhat reliable, 2= reliable, 3=very reliable.

{ For example: Market prices increased 200% as compared to same time last year (DC=1, R=2)

{ write summary element conclusion statements and note difference between and within HAGs and gender differences as relevant.

{ For outcome elements, when possible determine the indicative Phase for Area or HAGs.
