IPC: ACUTE FOOD INSECURITY PHASES

The bulletin "food basket and food security condi-tions in Haiti" published by CNSA1 in July 2018 reports an improvement in the general food security conditions in some departments, including Grand'Anse and Nord-Est, that moved from crisis phase to stressed phase between March-June 2018 and July - September 2018 according to the IPC2 protocol. The banana and rice growing zones of Ouest and Artibonite departments respectively have also moved from stressed phase to minimal phase. However, it should be noted that even in livelihood zones where the food security situation is improving, some pockets could still be in crisis phase due to the decrease in the number of livestock and areas planted as a result of the impact of drought.

Moreover, recent events that took place on 6 and 7 July related to the attempt to increase the price of fuel, which led to acts of looting and break-ins experienced by several companies, causing the rise in price of certain commodities in the Capital, could further weaken the already precarious food security situation. Also, the phenomenon of drought, which is becoming more and more prevalent in a large part of the country and which, according to forecasts, will continue until autumn, will lead to a deterioration of the food security of the population in the coming weeks if these forecasts are confirmed. The food security situation remains conditional to shocks related to natural disasters and increase in fuel prices in the national market. It is also conditioned by the stability of the exchange rate of the Haitian Gourde against the Dollar. In this context, the situation must be closely monitored.
