➔ APPENDIX 2: GLOSSARY OF KEY TERMS Alternatives to food aid: Actions to ensure that food products and primary needs (in areas of health, hygiene, water, clothing, etc) can be covered through an increase in access of a determined population, to prevent underlying or direct causes of malnutrition. Baseline: The result of collection and analysis of information that offers a detailed view of the situation of the population and the zone before starting the work. Later comparisons can be made between these initial levels and those achieved during and at the end of the intervention to be able to evaluate the changes that have taken place. Basic family basket: Collection of goods and services of primary necessity that represent the basic consumption of an average family. Coping strategies or adaptation mechanisms: Behaviour adopted by the vulnerable population before a crisis, or unfavourable event, to reduce risks and threats to subsistence. When these strategies are not sustainable they may endanger the food security of the population. Debt capacity: Concept that reflects the ability of an individual, family unit or production unit to make monthly payments. This is used in the process of granting loans to evaluate the total amount that can be given without putting at risk the future productive and economic capacity of the borrower. Exit strategy: Strategy that establishes the different stages that will lead to a gradual end to the support of the organisation and the subsequent closure of the mission. Food Aid: Making foodstuffs available and accessible to a given population, in terms of quality and quantity, in such way as to avoid malnutrition and diseases. Food needs: Quantity and quality of minimum necessary food required by the human body for complete development. Food Security: Food security is ensured when all people, at all times, have access economically, socially and physically to sufficient, safe, and nutrition food that satisfies their nutritional needs and dietary preferences, allowing them to live active and healthy lives. Food security of households corresponds to the application of this concept on the family level, with the centre of attention focusing on the individuals making up the household (FAO, 1996). Impact evaluation: A study that measures the realisation of the fixed quantitative and qualitative objectives and determines the positive and negative effects of the activities. Income: Monetary resources or in kind that an individual, or family unit, gains as a result of productive activities. 90 INCOME GENERATING ACTIVITIES: A KEY CONCEPT IN SUSTAINABLE FOOD SECURTIY
