Haiti: Riots or in-depth analysis,<br />

what drives programming?<br />

<br />

1.5 mn extra<br />

caseload, TFD<br />

• Northeast of Haiti<br />

SAPSAP (Jan06-<br />

Feb08)<br />

• Lack of evidence of<br />

impact either on food<br />

budget share, or on<br />

FCS/CSI: volatility?<br />

• No econometric<br />

evidence controlling<br />

for idiosyncratic<br />

shocks<br />

Niger: Sustainability <strong>and</strong>…<br />

Catchment areas!<br />

<br />

Backdrop<br />

• Panel data: 4,376<br />

households in 357<br />

Nigerien villages; usual<br />

food security indicators<br />

(DD, anthropometric<br />

measures e.g.)<br />

• Rounds: monthly from<br />

June to December ’07<br />

because of a lack of<br />

funding<br />

• Finding matching markets<br />

as sentinel sites data are<br />

gathered separately<br />

<strong>Food</strong> for thought<br />

Framework?<br />

• <strong>Price</strong> determinants intrinsically play a role in the strength of the<br />

impact (persistence of the shock e.g.), what to really expect from<br />

monitored indicators<br />

<strong>Analysis</strong>?<br />

• In-depth econometric analysis not possible; different needs to<br />

inform targeting e.g.; New monitoring tools: cost of a food basket<br />

approach? Triggers?<br />

Reconciliation?<br />

• Proved hard to link prices to household level data, tap into other<br />

monitoring indicators <strong>and</strong> fields (education,…)<br />

Innovations?<br />

• New set of indicators might be used in the monitoring systems<br />

when covering other livelihoods (urban settings e.g.); coping<br />

without a proper baseline<br />

Sharing?<br />

• Hard access to data<br />
