Food security survey

Food security surveys are designed to measure the availability and access to food for different individuals and households. They assess the degree to which people are able to acquire sufficient food resources to meet their dietary needs. The surveys typically measure different aspects of food security such as food access, food availability, food utilization, food preference, and food adequacy. Data collected through food security surveys can help identify food insecurity levels in a population and enable policymakers to develop targeted interventions to improve food security. Questions often cover topics such as household food insecurity, food access and availability, dietary intake, and other related issues. Food security surveys can be conducted through face-to-face interviews, phone interviews, or online surveys. The surveys provide key insights into the food security status of a population, and can help inform policy decisions.
