: The Suite of Food Security Indicators presents a fundamental collection of indicators focused on food security. This selection is based on the recommendations of experts who convened during the Committee on World Food Security (CFS) Round Table on hunger measurement at FAO headquarters in September 2011. These indicators were chosen to encompass various dimensions of food insecurity. The selection process considered expert insights and the availability of data that permits cross-regional and temporal comparisons. The FAO Statistical Quality Assurance Framework’s Principle 10 underscores the strict confidentiality of data subject to national policies, particularly regarding individuals, entities, and small aggregates. Such data are exclusively used for statistical purposes or in accordance with legal mandates. Please note that ethical approval was not required for this study.
