Integrated Food Security and Nutrition Phase Classification (FSNIPC)

The Integrated Food Security and Nutrition Phase Classification (FSNIPC) is a tool used to assess and communicate the severity of food security and nutrition issues in a specific area. It combines data on food availability, access, utilization, and health to categorize regions into different phases ranging from minimal concern to famine. This classification helps governments, aid organizations, and communities understand the level of urgency and plan appropriate responses to prevent or address hunger and malnutrition effectively.
