South Darfur, Sudan Food Security Monitoring, November 2015

Attachments

Summary

One third of sampled IDP households were found to be food insecure, a substantial deterioration compared to previous rounds of monitoring (May 2015 and November 2014). The main drivers of food insecurity included the poor growing season which created fewer-than-average labour opportunities in the agricultural sector, combined with steadily increasing prices. Food security levels among sampled households in mixed communities remained largely unchanged.
