HEA Framework: Overview
HEA starts with an understanding of how
households live in a reference period….
This assessment has been conducted using the Household Economy Approach (HEA) to analysing livelihoods and assessing food security.

Seasonal Assessment Steps
• Seasonal assessment team members trained over 2 days
• Team briefed by DPPB officials before spending over two weeks (DATES) in the field visiting (XXX) woredas in XXXX, XXXXX & XXXX zones.
• Meetings held with woreda officials to discuss the food security situation and to gather crop, livestock, price and "other" information for the current meher season. Interviews also held in each woreda with traders.
• Team conducted three days of analysis and report writing (DATES) using the Livelihood Impact Analysis Sheet (LIAS).
• The analysis involved comparing reference year with the current year.
• Beneficiaries generated by HEA analysis for each woreda (without including safety nets contribution) were compared with PSNP beneficiary numbers.

The Integrated Spreadsheet
Sheet C: Crop production
Sheet L: Livestock production
Sheet M: Market prices
Sheet O: Other sources of Food and Cash
The analysis is carried out using an excel spreadsheet that stores the baseline data and accepts data on current production and market conditions

The Integrated Spreadsheet
On Sheet C, crop production data is entered for the current and reference years, and the IS calculates the problem specification automatically
Current year production
Problem specification
Reference year productionNeed only be entered into one column of the reference table

Market conditions – continued
• INFLATION: Overall inflation was XXX% (according to CSA data). The inflation rate for food was XXX%. The PSNP cash injection is not increasing with inflation, which means that it is losing real value significantly year by year.

Food Security Prospects: Analysis ExampleREPLACE WITH AN EXAMPLE FROM THE REGION
Analysis was conducted for every combination of woreda and livelihood zone. The deficits illustrated here disappear when the PSNP contribution is incorporated into the analysis.
