Pakistan: Integrated Context Analysis (ICA), 2017

No abstract provided

This layer contains information about the additional environmental hazards - landslides, Glacial Lake Outburst Flood (GLOF) and earthquakes - estimated during the Integrated Context Analysis (ICA) run in Pakistan in 2017. Data source: NDMA 1950-2015 (landslides and GLOF), NDMA 1905-2015 (earthquakes). The key indicators used for the analysis were 5-point scales of hazard levels ranging from very low to very high.

It should be noted that these additional hazards represent aggravating factors that can provide further details to refine broad programmatic strategies, but are not to be considered as stand-alone maps. For the purpose of this analysis, only the high and very high hazards have been mapped on top of the ICA Areas (see the relative static maps for further details).

This layer contains information about the flood risk estimated during the Integrated Context Analysis (ICA) performed in Pakistan in 2017. The indicator used was the number of flood events recorded between 1950 and 2015 and the severity by which they were affected by the super-flood in 2010. Source: National Disaster Management Agency (NDMA) for Pakistan.

This layer contains information about the drought risk estimated during the Integrated Context Analysis (ICA) performed in Pakistan in 2017. Data source: National Drought Monitoring Centre of the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD), 1951-2010. The key indicator used for the analysis was a drought hazard index based on SPI data.

This layer contains information about the final categorization, in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), resulting from the Integrated Context Analysis (ICA) run in Pakistan in 2017, showing areas of convergence between high levels of food insecurity and propensity to natural shocks.

“Integrated Context Analysis on Vulnerability to Food Insecurity and Natural Hazards” (ICA) is a joint initiative by the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) and the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) in close collaboration with the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and relevant line departments, ministries and technical institutions of Pakistan. The study has been carried out under the overall leadership of NDMA from December 2016 to September 2017.

This layer contains information about the reclassification of the natural shocks risk (floods and drought) into a single combined score according to the Integrated Context Analysis (ICA) performed in Pakistan in 2017.

This layer contains information about the risk of food insecurity according to the Integrated Context Analysis (ICA) performed in Pakistan in 2017. Given that no other food security outcome data was available at district level for the whole country, the analysis was carried out using poverty data as a proxy for vulnerability to food insecurity. Data source: UNDP, 2004/05 to 2005/06. The key indicator used for the analysis was the Multi-Dimensional Poverty Index (MPI), with the threshold set to 0.329 - average of all the district-level observations over 6 PSLM rounds. It should be noted that 33 districts in the country did not have MPI data available and are not covered by this specific analysis.

This layer contains information about the land degradation phenomenon observed during the Integrated Context Analysis (ICA) run in Pakistan in 2017. Data source: ESA (300m resolution) 1992-2015, FAO (lithology), WorldClim (rainfall incidence), land cover (NASA MODIS) and slope length (NASA SRTM digital elevation model). The key indicators used for the analysis were the average ecological change and the percentage of surface prone to erosion.

It should be noted that land degradation, according to the current ICA methodology, is not a stand-alone map but has to be considered as a lens that, overlaid on top of the ICA Areas, provide further information to refine broad programmatic strategies. The brown-green scheme has just been used for the layer preview because, for the purposes of this analysis, only negative values of ecological change and districts with a surface prone to erosion above 20% have been used for the final map (see "ICA Pakistan, 2017 - Land Degradation 1992-2015" static map for further details).

This layer contains information about the risk of food insecurity, in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), according to the Integrated Context Analysis (ICA) performed in Pakistan in 2017. In absence of MPI data for FATA and considering existing circumstances and the importance of evidence based information, a different dataset has been used Data source: WFP In-depth Food Security and Livelihood Assessments 2014 & 2017, Multi-Cluster Humanitarian Needs Assessment 2016 The key indicator used for the analysis was the composite food insecurity rate developed under the Consolidated Approach to Reporting on Indicators of Food Security (CARI), with the threshold set to 38%.
