IPC Version 2.0 - What's New?

The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) is a set of analytical tools, and processes, to analyse and classify the severity of a food security situation according to scientific international standards. It aims at providing decision makers with a rigorous analysis of food insecurity in both emergency and development contexts, and key objectives for response to better coordinate the interventions. The IPC tools and procedures are compatible with whatever data collection systems, methodological approaches, and institutional arrangements exist in-county, and allow comparison of findings over time and across countries. The IPC is also a forum involving Government, UN, NGOs and civil society that conduct joint food security analysis to reach technical consensus on the nature and severity of food insecurity in their country. By using the IPC common scale and 'currency', key stakeholders work together to consolidate wide-ranging evidence on food insecure populations and answer the following questions: How severe is the situation? Where are the areas that are food insecure? Who are the food insecure people? What are the key causes? The new IPC Version 2.0 aims at meeting the challenges emerged from the IPC field applications since 2004. This latest version offers new innovations such as the IPC analytical framework and clear functions to guide the work of the IPC analysts from the beginning to the end of their work. The IPC Manual Version 2.0 also reconciles key differences in approaches to food security analysis among national governments and international agencies, thereby allowing for greater buy-in and collaboration. The IPC is a multi agency initiative globally led by ten partners: Action Contre la Faim (ACF), CARE International, the Comité permanent Inter-Etats de Lutte contre la Sécheresse dans le Sahel (CILSS), the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET), the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission, OXFAM, Save the Children, and the the United Nations World Food Programme. The IPC development and implementation has been, and is, made possible by the support of multiple agencies including the Australian Government Overseas Aid Program (AusAID), the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), European Commission Development and Cooperation -- EuropeAid (EC DEVCO), European Commission Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection (ECHO), the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the Royal Government of the Netherlands, the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA), the UK Government (DFID), and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
