This Handbook is intended for use in emergency situations or protracted crises, whether due to sudden natural disaster, drought, disease, economic collapse or conflict, and to address the needs of both resident and displaced persons. The Handbook is intended for WFP VAM and food security analysts but it will also be useful for programme staff as well as for the governmental, NGO and United
Nations partners with whom WFP collaborates in emergency food security assessments (EFSAs).
