2 Flickr (Milo Mitchell/IFPRI 2013) Organisation of the presentation: 1. Evolution of food and nutrition security definitions and concepts 2. Key players in Zambia s food and nutrition sector 3. Efforts to monitor food and nutrition security and their gaps 4. A proposal: Towards a Food and Nutrition Security Dashboard (FSDN)
3 Evolution of food and nutrition security definitions and concepts (Klaus Droppelmann 2010) United Nations World Food Summit in Rome 1974: Food Security is the availability at all times of adequate world supplies of basic foodstuffs, primarily cereals, so as to avoid acute food shortages in the event of widespread crop failures or natural disasters, sustain a steady expansion of production and reduce fluctuations in production and prices (FAO, 1974).
4 Flickr (Anna-Marie Ball/IFPRI 2007) Maxwell (1996) claims food security underwent three paradigm shifts: (a) from the global and the national to the household and the individual, (b)from a food first perspective to a livelihood perspective, and (c) from objective indicators to subjective perception.
5 Flickr (IFPRI 2007) Access Stability Availability United Nations World Food Summit in Rome 1996: Food security exists when all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life (FAO 2006).

8 Key players in Zambia s food and nutrition sector MAL (Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock) key player in food economy, close cooperation with CSO and FRA VAC (Vulnerability Assessment Committee) key player (stakeholder grouping) on livelihood assessments NFNC (National Food and Nutrition Commission) key player in nutrition and its linkages to health sector DMMU (Disaster Mitigation Management Unit) coordinates emergency response, core member of VAC WFP (World Food Programme) provides food aid & supports market dev, core member of VAC FEWS NET (Famine Early Warning System Network) tracking biophysical & economic trends, core member of VAC FAO (Food and Agriculture Organisation) focuses on info networks and coordination capacity COMESA (Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa) drives CAADP agenda, informal cross border trade monitoring IAPRI (Indaba Agricultural Policy Research Institute) provides evidence based policy research on FNS JCTR (Jesuit Centre for Theoretical Reflection) tracks socio-economic status of HHs (BNB & RB) Private Sector (ZNFU, MAZ, GTAZ, etc.) important player in food economy, esp. info sharing thru SAG CSO-SUN (Civil Society Organisations Scaling Up Nutrition) large network focusing on early child development International Collaborating Partners harmonised approach, coherent action & consistent info sharing International Research Institutions practical research and supporting better info flows
9 Food and Nutrition relevant monitoring efforts MAL M&E system is a) user-friendly (aiming at decision-makers), b) simple and harmonised (vertical and horizontal coordination) c) inclusive (aiming at bringing in non-state actors) d) ranging from input to impact indicators along result chains e) 38 NAIP indicators, 21 of which are relevant to food and nutrition security BUT these 21 indicators are still not compiled in a easy to grasp and consistent form of presentation and they are not sufficiently linked to indicators of the other dimensions of food and nutrition security.
10 Food and Nutrition relevant monitoring efforts NFNC M&E system is a) capturing nutrition relevant information from key sectors b) comprised of a vast number of indicators on 11 strategic directions each with several strategic objectives c) proposing the establishment of sentinel surveillance monitoring sites for higher level indicators d) focusing on coordination and harmonisation (Three-Ones-Principle: One coordinating body, One strategy, One M&E system) BUT NFNC undergoes a restructuring and revamping phase posing challenges to its current capacity to effectively coordinate a complex sector at the same time offering scope for innovations.
11 Food and Nutrition relevant monitoring efforts VAC annual assessments a) selection of areas targeted for the assessments is based on Crop Forecast data b) detailed assessment of HH vulnerability to external shocks with an emphasis on natural calamities c) well established and accepted multi-stakeholder approach BUT the VAC assessments do not take a look at longer-term developments in the food and nutrition security sector for the whole country.
12 Information needs by decision makers? The multi-secotral and complex nature of food and nutrition security has been a challenge since long leading to incoherent approaches and uncoordinated action by a wide range of actors in the past. MAL: food economy focus on economic issues NFNC: nutrition and health oriented low coordination capacity VAC: multi-stakeholder HH-level assessments only selected areas & acute emergencies Information on food and nutrition security is available but not accessible by decision makers in an easily digestible presentation.

22 Partnerships around food and nutrition security in Zambia VAC includes all of the key actors in the emergency preparedness With technical support through IAPRI MAL coordinates with the entire sector through the Sector Advisory Group; collaborates closely with CSO and FRA Coordination of the FNSD NFNC advises Government on all matters of food and nutrition
23 Food for Thought: 1. Is the Food and Nutrition Security Dashboard likely to add value or does it duplicate current efforts? 2. Is the VAC the best option as coordinating body and are they up to the task? 3. Is there need for technical support to manage the FNSD? 4. Are important stakeholders left out in the proposed structure? 5. What information gaps on food and nutrition security still exist?
