IPC food emergency analysis

Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC):
The main goal of the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) is to provide decision-makers with rigerous, envidence- and consensus-based analysis of food insecurity and acute malnutition situatons, to inform emergency responses as well as medium- and long-term policy and
programming.
The IPC is an initiative for improving food security and nutrition analysis and decision-making. By using the IPC classification and analytical approach, Governments, UN Agencies, NGOs, civil socient and other relevant actors work together to determine the severity and magnitude of acute
and chronic food insecurity, and acute malnutition situations in a country, according to internationally-recognised scientific standards.
Note:
Not all IPC data is publicly available. ACAPS continues to advocate for data sharing interopability of humanitarian information.
ACAPS collects quantitative data through publicly available platforms and collates within the ACAPS Yemen Core Data Set (download below).

IPC food security periods have been analysed. Data is presented at district level where possible. Governorate data is presented where district level data is unavailable. Please note that IPC 3+ is the aggregate of all IPC phases above 3.

Integrated Food Security Phase Classification
Phase 1: None/Normal
Households are able to meet essential food and non-food needs without engaging in atypical and unsustainable coping strategies to access food and income.
Phase 2: Stressed
Households are able to meet essential food and non-food needs without engaging in atypical and unsustainable coping strategies to access food and income.
Phase 3: Crisis
Households either have food consumption gaps that are reflected by high or above-usual acute malnutrition, or are marginally able to meet minimum food needs but only by depleting essential livlihood assets or through crisis-coping strategies.
Phase 4: Emergency
Households either have large food consumption gaps which are reflected in very high acute malnutrition and excess mortality, or are able to mitigate large food consumption gaps but only by employing emergency livlihood strategies and asset liquidation.
Phase 5: Famine
Households have an extreme lack of food and/or other basic needs even after full employment of coping strategies. Starvation, death, destitution and extremely critical acute malnutrition levels are evident. (For Famine Classification, area needs to have extreme critical leves of acute malnutrition and mortality).
