Title: IPC Overview, Value-Added, and Future Vision

IPC Overview, Value-Added, and Future Vision
2
Outline of the presentation
I. Overview of the IPC (what it is, what it is
not) II. The IPC in practice (application, use
usefulness) III. Where to find IPC information
(contacts, resources)

Common Challenges for Action-Oriented Food
Security Analysis
  • Unreliable and irregular data
  • Reconciling various methods
  • Comparability over space and time
  • Building technical consensus
  • Communicating complex information for action
  • Different agencies have different methods and
    approaches for addressing these challenges....

4
We need a common currency for describing the
nature and severity of food security
situations. We need minimum common standards for
conducting food security analysis
5
What the IPC is..
  • A set of Protocols for classifying the nature and
    severity of food security situations
  • The IPC summarizes Situation Analysis
  • a distinct stage in the analysis-response
    continuum.
  • A process involving multiple actors in making
    decisions in a consensual manner.

6
The IPC 6 Core Functions
  1. Building Technical Consensus
  2. Integrated Analysis
  3. Linking to Common Severity Scale
  4. Diagnosing Causes and Opportunities
  5. Core Communication
  6. Quality Assurance

7
The IPC Analytical Approach
  1. Bring together any and all relevant information
    (evidence) and evaluate the convergence of
    evidence against a common severity scale.
  2. The IPC is an open system, meaning any
    methodologies or indicators are accommodated in
    the analysis.

Common Severity Scale

Comparability Over Space


10
And what the IPC is not
  • A method it draws from multiple methods
  • A data collection tool it may inform data
    collection and highlight information gaps
  • An information system - it is a complementary
    add-on
  • Response analysisthis is the next step, which is
    based on sound situation analysis

11
Value Added of IPC
  • Links complex information to action
  • Common language
  • Comparability over space and time
  • Transparency accountability
  • Basis for response analysis
  • Technical Consensus

12
Key Revisions for Version 2.0
  • Introducing tools for analyzing Chronic Food
    Insecurity
  • Introducing innovative Analytical Framework
  • Improved linkages with response
  • others....

13
IPC Governance Structure
  • IPC Global Steering Committee includes CARE, EC
    JRC, FAO, FEWSNET, Oxfam, SCF, and WFP
  • The Steering Committee oversees the work of the
    IPC Global Support Unit, hosted at FAO
    headquarters, but with inter agency staff.

14
Future Vision
  • Release of IPC Version 2.0
  • On-line information management system
  • Expansion of the Steering Committee
  • Deepen institutional commitments
  • Country/Region expansion
  • Increase the breadth and depth of capacity
    building
  • Develop certification criteria and link to
    academia

15
IPC Implementation to Date
16
Conclusion IPC Promotes Working Together
  • National and Sub-national levels
  • Govt-led multi-sectoral, inter-agency Technical
    Working Groups
  • Regional level
  • Govt-led multi-sectoral, inter-agency IPC support
    groups
  • Global level
  • Inter-agency Steering Committee
  • Linkages to other initiatives and structures
  • International standards
