The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has developed a monitoring system in 26 food crisis countries to better understand the impacts of various shocks on agricultural livelihoods, food security and local value chains. The Monitoring System consists of primary data collected from households on a periodic basis (more or less every four months, depending on seasonality). Data are collected through Computer-Assisted Telephone Interviews (CATI) and in-person surveys where the circumstances allow for field access. As the system is developed, the information collected and analyzed is being used to guide strategic decisions, to design programmes and to inform analytical processes such as the Integrated Phase Classification (IPC) and the Humanitarian Needs Overview (HNO). At the core of the system is a standardized household questionnaire administered to around 150,000 households per year across the 26 countries. Standardization permits comparisons across time and space, considerably enhancing the utility of the data for decision makers. At minimum the household data are representative at Admin 1 level (e.g. province, or region) and in frequent cases at Admin 2 level (e.g. district). Core funding for this initiative comes from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). The initiative also benefits from support from the European Union and FAO’s Special Fund for Emergency and Rehabilitation (SFERA). In each aggregated field, the values indicate the frequencies of the different responses, expressed as a weighted percentage of the total sample. The present datasets represents aggregated data referring to household interviews performed after December 2022. At every new survey data release, after cleaning and validation phases, aggregated data is appended to the present dataset.

This dataset updates: Never

The Americas have experienced a significant number of mixed movements, in which individuals and groups engage in human mobility using similar routes and means of transport for various reasons. The diverse population includes asylum-seekers, refugees, victims of human trafficking, unaccompanied and separated children, stateless persons, and migrants in vulnerable situations, among others. To understand these dynamics, UNHCR and WFP launched a regional monitoring project in 2023, aiming to identify trends, profiles, and protection and food security needs of those on the move. Since the second quarter of 2024, UNICEF joined the project, contributing to data collection and analysis, particularly on child-related indicators around nutrition, health, education, primary needs, and humanitarian assistance received. Accurate data is crucial for informing evidence-based decision-making about responses, discussions in UN forums, and regional collaboration. The data collected focused on the drivers of human mobility, profiles of individuals on the move, risks encountered along the journey, conditions in transit countries, food security, child protection, and intentions. The insights gathered helped to effectively shape policies and enhance humanitarian efforts. Mixed Movement Monitoring reports can be found at this link: https://data.unhcr.org/en/working-group/475

REACH Colombia - Ciénaga, Magdalena - Evaluación Basada en Área (EBA) [By...

REACH Initiative

Time Period of the Dataset [?]: July 13, 2023-July 24, 2023 ... More

This data is by request only

El departamento de Magdalena por muchas décadas ha sido una zona de múltiples afectaciones de índole humanitaria. El municipio Ciénaga particularmente ha sido un territorio receptor de victimas del conflicto armado debido a su cercanía a la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta donde Grupos Armados No Estatales se resguardan estratégicamente para controlar el paso de tránsito entre varios departamentos donde se producen cultivos ilícitos y los puertos al norte del país por donde salen estos productos. Ciénaga a su vez ha recibido un flujo migratorio de población refugiada y migrante venezolana ya que es un territorio donde los costos de vida son relativamente bajos y queda ubicado cercano a territorios donde la producción agrícola es la principal actividad económica y pueden encontrar empleo. Por otro lado, Ciénaga al estar delimitado en el costado occidental por la Ciénaga Grande y en el norte por el Mar Caribe, el municipio de Ciénaga se encuentra expuesto a los riesgos por variabilidad climática que van de extremo a extremo. Por un lado, las temporadas de lluvias (fenómeno de la Niña) y las épocas de huracanes tropicales en el océano Atlántico ocasionan que anualmente la cabecera municipal presente inundaciones por crecimiento de la Ciénaga Grande y por erosión costera, lo cual deriva en victimas que pierden pertenencias dentro de sus viviendas e inclusive las mismas viviendas si estas están construidas de materiales inadecuados. Por otro lado, las épocas de sequía afectan las zonas rurales de Ciénaga ocasionando la muerte de cultivos y de animales. Una tercera problemática por inundaciones se presenta por las obras fallidas de drenaje y acueducto que ocasionan inundaciones en varios sectores del municipio.
