Food Security Information Network
2024
The Food Security Information Network (FSIN) is a global information sharing platform co-funded by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, World Food Programme, and International Food Policy Research Institute focused on using data to shape policies, projects, decision-making, and programs to reduce poverty and end hunger and malnutrition. The FSIN works with 16 global and regional partners to build collaborations between government institutions and development partners to create and reform food security information systems, improve availability and quality of food security analysis, and advocate for evidence-based food and nutrition decisions and policies.
The FSIN primarily emphasizes using data analytics to produce and promote timely information, global reports and analyses, and strategic initiatives that can strengthen responses to food crises and inform preventing crises. The FSIN also works on resilience measurement of its programs and decision-making progress on the country- and regional level. The organization works with local institutions and governments to help provide resilience measurement and technical advice. The FSIN offers a resource portal containing reports, strategy and policy documents, infographics, maps, evaluations, and other resources related to their work and impact. It also publishes up-to-date news on issues relevant to the FSIN and offers online trainings for professionals or organizations to use the tools and methods of the FSIN.
