Food security classification and assistance targeting

Computing the Food Consumption Score, Household Hunger Scale and reduced Coping Strategy Index from raw components, then deciding which households a limited cash caseload should reach — and defending the threshold choice that decides it.

1,955

Households, both modules

76.3%

Flagged by at least one instrument

3.4%

Flagged by all four

Four instruments, the same households

The rows do not sum: a household can be flagged by more than one instrument.
Instrument	Households	Prevalence
Poor food consumption	144	7.4%
Moderate or severe hunger	839	42.9%
Crisis coping or worse	943	48.2%
High coping index	997	51.0%

Figure

The highest prevalence is seven times the lowest, on the same households.

Why this exists

Audience: Food security cluster and the cash working group
The decision it informs: Which households enter the cash assistance caseload, and on what stated criteria.

How these numbers are produced

Every number on this page is computed from the committed dataset file named below by scripts/export/build-project-dashboards.mjs. Nothing is typed by hand and the page contains no script, no external request and no generation date, so rebuilding it on unchanged data produces an identical file.

What this page does not show

None of these prevalences is an IPC classification, which requires convergence of evidence and a technical consensus. The four figures do not average: they are on different scales.
