Initially developed by Oxfam, this tool aims to support response teams to gather a good enough picture of the food security and livelihoods situation in order to design rapid responses that can meet immediate needs and protect livelihoods in the context of practical constraints that usually follow a rapid-onset crisis.
The results of this initial assessment are aimed to inform the design of first phase responses, for the first six to eight weeks after the disaster occurred.
A more detailed assessment is expected to take place at a later date, led by food security and livelihood specialists.
