Integrated Food Security Phase Classification Website (IPC)

The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) is a standardised tool that aims at providing a “common currency” for classifying food security. By using a common scale, which is comparable across countries, the tool is designed to make it easier for donors, agencies and governments to identify priorities for intervention before they become catastrophic.

The IPC website contains the food security classifications and IPC maps for many countries, information about training workshops, publications and news articles, updates to the IPC technical manual and other resources. In the near future, an e-learning course and related training materials will also be available.
