Global Food Security Index Global score - Period 2012 - 2019 (MSSD Indicator 11)

Lack of adaptation and mitigation measures for natural disasters and strong external food dependency are still significant challenges for the region. Physical access to food products depends on their availability as well as their affordability. However physical access is not sufficient to guarantee food security, which also depends on the quality of people’s diet.

source_abstract The 1996 World Food Summit defined food security as the state in which « all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life ». The Global Food Security Index (GFSI) was developed by the experts of the Economist Intelligence Unit in order to measure food security considering 3 core issues: affordability, availability and quality of food: • Affordability measures « the ability of consumers to purchase food ». • Availability measures « the sufficiency of the national food supply». • Quality and safety measures « the variety and nutritional quality of average diets, as well as the safety of food » Credits: The Economist Intelligence Unit.
