The first edition of the Food Security Atlas of Nepal was produced jointly by the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) and the Nepal Development Research Institute (NDRI) under the overall guidance and supervision of the Food Security Task Force of the National Planning Commission (NPC). The aim of the Food Security Atlas is to contribute to a better understanding of the social patterns of food security, poverty and malnutrition in Nepal in order to provide a solid basis for developing a comprehensive national food security plan. This is achieved through the mapping of a series of food security indicators and a spatial analysis of these data and indicators.
