VARIABLES AND INDICATORS FOR FS RAPID ASSESSMENT DURING NUTRITION SCREENING 1. POPULATION MOVEMENT Variable Evolution of the residents number in the area Reasons of new arriving or departure Number of population in / out during the last few month Proportion of IDPs / Residents Indicator Area with an important risk of new arrivals High level of new comers 2. CULTIVATION Variable Proportion of the population involved in wet agricultural production this year compared to last year Average yield of the main product this year and last year Average potential yield for the next harvest Rainfalls and main diseases occurred Indicator Large proportion of the population affected by a bad harvest 3. LIVESTOCK Variable Proportion of the population owner of livestock this year compared to last year Evolution of the herd between 2002 and 2003 Proportion of families that sold there last milking cow recently Indicator Large proportion of the population that lost livestock Large proportion of the population that lost their last milking cow 4. FISH AND WILD FOOD Variable Availability/access to wild food and fish Proportion of the population collecting wild food or fishing Average quantity of wild fruit collected Average quantity of fish catch Indicator Large proportion of the population unable to produce or collect food in the coming months 5. MARKET Variable Indicator Increase of the price of the main food items Decrease of the price of the items sold Decrease of the demand Variable Indicator Price of the main food items Price of the product sold Type of people that buy the items 6. FOOD CONSUMPTION Sources of food Quality of the food Number of meal per day and quantity Decrease of the quantity and the quality of the food 1 VARIABLES AND INDICATORS FOR FS RAPID ASSESSMENT DURING NUTRITION SCREENING 7. FOOD AID Variable Proportion of the pop that have received food aid from WFP during the last 3 months Status of their WFP food storage % of WFP food aid on their daily food consumption Other source of food aid received (including FFW) % of other food aid on the total food aid (or daily food consumption) Coping mechanisms that the population could develop to cope with the situation (no WFP food) Indicator Large number of the population relying on WFP food aid for their daily consumption Large number of the population relying on food aid for their daily consumption 8. COPING MECHANISMS Variable Income generating activities developed in the area (including those that are also used for food production) Proportion of the population that are developing income generating activities Number of people in the household involved in the activities Coping mechanisms used by the population Indicator Few sources of incomes Few population having incomes Few coping mechanisms Large dependence on coping mechanisms 9. WATER AND SANITATION Variable Sources of water Proportion of the population using only safe water, mixing safe water and from river, only from river Distance from the population to the water points during the dry season Taxation or price for safe water Sanitation conditions (open defecation, …) Indicator Problem of accessibility on safe water Problem of availability on safe water Large part of the population using only or occasionally non safe water due to distance or price of safe water Few latrines 10. HEALTH Variable Health structure in the area Price of the consultation Availability of drugs Main diseases in the area (currently, seasonally) Indicator No access to primary health care Serious diarrhoea or measles epidemic ongoing Risk for diarrhoea or measles epidemic (seasonal) Other epidemic ongoing Large proportion of population affected by or risking diseases that can provoke malnutrition 2
