BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF THE ASSIGNMENT:

When faced with an emergency or dealing with structural food insecurity, information can save lives. Who are the food insecure or vulnerable people? How many are there? Where do they live? Why are they food insecure and vulnerable? How is the situation likely to evolve and what are the risks threatening them?
Through food security analysis and monitoring, based on household surveys – whether baseline (Comprehensive Food Security and Vulnerability Analyses), or emergency food security assessments (EFSA) – WFP provides actionable food security information for each country in which it works. By combining traditional assessment methods with advanced and emerging technologies, WFP is able to identify food insecure populations around the world, and to establish the underlying causes of food insecurity using several approaches including the Consolidated Approach on Reporting Indicators of Food Security Indicators (CARI). 
In 2021, based on feedback from the field as well as updates to food security and essential needs indicators, (CARI) guidance has been updated. In conjunction, several related resources and training materials are to be provided, to ensure a clear understanding of the updates and methods by the field. Furthermore, any updates must be in line with the overall HQ RAM standardization project for better facilitation of future analysis and reporting. 
Furthermore, WFP conducts joint food security analysis with other stakeholders as part of the Integrated Phase Classification (IPC) for acute food insecurity. WFP also plays an active role in the global food security cluster to guide the development of standard methodologies to measure food insecurity and identify people in need at country level.
