Synopsis (short abstract)
This Data in Emergencies Monitoring (DIEM-Monitoring) brief shares the results of the twelfth-round assessment conducted in December 2024 and January 2025 in Bangladesh. It presents key findings and recommendations for humanitarian actors to utilize in planning and implementing data-driven programming to sustain farmers’ livelihoods and build their resilience to future shocks protecting the food security of rural people. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations established the DIEM-Monitoring system in June 2020. In 29 of the world’s most food-insecure countries, DIEM-Monitoring enumerators collect data at household level on shocks, agricultural livelihoods, food security and needs several times a year through computer-assisted telephone interviews and face-to-face surveys. This regularly collected and granular data is easily accessible in the form of dashboards, maps, briefs and aggregated data on the DIEM Hub, enabling partners and stakeholders to trigger immediate mitigation and response actions.
