1 Famine Early Warning Systems Network FOOD SECURITY OUTLOOK FOR GUINEA, LIBERIA, AND SIERRA LEONE January to June 2015 InterAction January 7, 2015 Washington DC Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone are FEWS NET remote monitoring countries. In remote monitoring, a coordinator typically works from a nearby regional office. Relying on partners for data, the coordinator uses scenario development to conduct analysis and produce monthly reports. As less data may be available, remote monitoring reports may have less detail than those from countries with FEWS NET offices.
2 Key messages Ebola-related fears and official restrictions on population movements have limited market functioning and typical livelihood activities across the region. 2014/15 harvests are expected to be average to slightly below-average. As most agricultural households are consuming their recent harvests, food security outcomes are currently most severe amongst households directly impacted by Ebola and poor, non-agricultural households residing in worst-affected zones. As households become increasingly market dependent during the first quarter of 2015, atypically poor purchasing power will limit food access. By June 2015, Stressed (IPC Phase 2) and Crisis (IPC Phase 3) food insecurity is expected for poor households across much of the region. FAMINE EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS NETWORK 2

5 IPC 2.0 acute area phase classification PHASE 1 Minimal Households are meeting their basic food and nonfood needs without unsustainable coping strategies. PHASE 2 Stressed Household food consumption is minimally adequate. Households are unable to afford some essential nonfood expenditures without unsustainable coping strategies. PHASE 3 Crisis PHASE 4 Emergency PHASE 5 Famine Households face food consumption gaps or are only meeting minimal food needs through unsustainable coping strategies. Households face extreme food consumption gaps or are experiencing extreme loss of livelihood assets that will likely lead to food consumption gaps. Households have a near complete lack of food and/or other basic needs. Starvation, death, and destitution are evident. URGENT ACTION REQUIRED! Phase classification would likely be worse without current or programmed humanitarian assistance. FAMINE EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS NETWORK 5

18 ASSUMPTIONS AND ANALYSIS THROUGH JUNE 2015 FAMINE EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS NETWORK 18
19 Assumption: Ebola outbreak continues Projected Ebola cases through Feb. 8 th, Sierra Leone Sierra Leone: o Infection rate will be similar to current levels through the first quarter of 2015 before then slowing later in the year Guinea and Liberia: o Infection rates will be similar to current levels Source: Columbia University Prediction of Infectious Diseases FAMINE EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS NETWORK 19
20 Assumption: Disruptions to economic activity Most markets will remain open but will operate at reduced levels Disconnect of rural and urban markets, with most severe impacts in Sierra Leone Atypically low cross-border trade Relatively normal rice import levels due to continued port functioning Imported rice prices will follow seasonal trends. Prices will be similar to or below last year s levels in Guinea and above last year s levels in Liberia and Sierra Leone FAMINE EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS NETWORK 20
21 Assumption: Significantly below-average incomes Typical source for poor HHs Compared to average Urban/ rural HHs Crop sales (staples/cash) q Rural Labor (ag. and non-ag.) q Both Forestry products q Both Petty trade q Both Bush meat q Rural Livestock p Rural Incomes compared to average are described as Above (p), Similar (u) or Below (q). FAMINE EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS NETWORK 21
22 Other assumptions Household food stocks will deplete one to two months earlier than normal in areas with the most significant crop production losses Start of the 2015 rainy season will be normal Slight reduction in the area planted during both the off-season and main season in areas worst-affected by Ebola Cassava harvests will be average and will continue year-round FAMINE EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS NETWORK 22
