The project aims to study the best international practices of food security data collection mechanisms and map and analyze the existing mechanisms in Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia in terms of food security data collection. ISET-PI team is expected to compare national data collection mechanisms with international practices, identify key gaps and challenges in measuring FS and provide specific recommendations for FS data collection in three countries.

Reporting on food security indicators/indexes on a regular basis will give the possibility for the reliable monitoring of the food security conditions in these countries. Systematic monitoring of the conditions will result in evidence-based forecasts and respective impact-oriented interventions in the long run.
