Summary
The State of Food Security in Sierra Leone 2020 showcases findings from the Comprehensive Food Security and Vulnerability Analysis (CFSVA). The CFSVA provides a trend analysis on food insecurity and is conducted every five years. This is the third CFSVA conducted in Sierra Leone. The State of Food Security in Sierra Leone 2020 is a culmination of the collaborative efforts of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, Statistics Sierra Leone and the World Food Programme. The analysis contributes to the Government and development partners’ understanding of the food and nutrition security situation of the population at the district and chiefdom level. It provides insight based on more than 34,000 household surveys and 17,046 mid upper arm circumference measurements of children under the age of five years. The analysis considers multisectoral data and indicators contributing to the food and nutrition security status of households across Sierra Leone.
