FOREWORD
T
he High Level Panel of Experts on Food
Security and Nutrition (HLPE-FSN) is the
science-policy interface of the Committee
on World Food Security (CFS), the foremost
inclusive and evidence-based international and
intergovernmental platform for food security
and nutrition (FSN). The HLPE-FSN provides
independent, comprehensive and evidence-
based analysis and advice at the request of the
CFS and elaborates studies through a scientific,
transparent and inclusive process, ensuring
legitimacy among stakeholders, involving broad
consultations and incorporating different forms
of knowledge and expertise as well as a rigorous
scientific peer-review process.
The report “Data collection and analysis tools for
food security and nutrition: towards enhancing
effective, inclusive, evidence-informed, decision
making” has been produced by the HLPE-FSN
following a request from the CFS and focuses on
the role that data collection and analysis tools
play in supporting effective evidence-informed
decisions.
Food is a fundamental human right, and yet, too
many people in the world do not have secure
access to the food they need every day. In 2021,
about one in every 11 people in the world (around
800 million people) faced hunger and many more
(around 2.3 billion) were moderately or severely
food insecure. The world is off track to achieving
the SDG targets on hunger, food insecurity and
malnutrition. Different and better actions are
needed to reverse this trend.
Against this backdrop,
the findings and
recommendations of this report are an
important contribution to achieve food security
and nutrition
. High-quality data and its accurate
and timely analysis are essential to design,
monitor and evaluate effective FSN policies. Data
are also fundamental to ensure accountability
of government policies and to monitor their
implementation and impact.
We are also experiencing a data revolution,
driven by new technologies, which is increasing
exponentially the volume and types of data
available. This provides
great opportunities
for informing and transforming food systems,
but also creates
new risks
and can deepen
inequalities within or between nations and
societies.
A major challenge in the elaboration of this
report has been the
inherent complexity
of
the different angles and multiple dimensions
of data collection, analysis and use – including
economic, social, institutional, political, legal and
technical – as well as the types of users involved,
namely public and private, and the numerous
and diverse purposes data may be used for.
To
determine the scope of the report
, the HLPE-
FSN took into account the following elements:
1) the points explicitly made by the CFS in their
request; 2) the results of the e-consultation on
the scope of the report; and 3) the conclusions of
the meeting organized by the CFS Secretariat on
the matter.

DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS TOOLS FOR FOOD SECURITY AND NUTRITION
Addressing some points of the CFS request has
been particularly challenging, due to scarcity
of information regarding some issues and to
the fact that data gaps are country-specific
and cannot be described at a global level.
Therefore, this report indicates directions for
future research and suggests policy measures to
improve this in the future.
Moreover, many of the identified issues are not
specific for FSN data but apply to all types of
data. Therefore, it was necessary to seek an
optimum balance between dealing with general
data considerations and specific considerations
related to FSN data
, in order to avoid duplication
and overlap with other international reports on
data.
Well aware of the complexity of this report and
its relevance for improving FSN, the HLPE-FSN
strived to apply
maximum precision, rigour
and professionalism
,
working at all times with
evidence and academic references and providing
sound and balanced arguments and conclusions
regarding controversial issues.
The result is a set of
practical recommendations
addressed to the CFS, governments, the United
Nations and international agencies, as well as
academia.
It is imperative to achieve the necessary
transformation of food systems and to embrace
the data revolution in support of this effort
.
Decisive action now, leveraging current political
opportunities and public opinion sensitivity
and awareness, as well as technological
innovation, can steer the course in the right
direction. The CFS and its members can take
great advantage of this report and its actionable
recommendations.
On behalf of the HLPE-FSN Steering Committee,
I would like to commend and thank the
international experts of the project team led by
Carlo Cafiero. They provided impressive work,
solely on a pro bono basis.
The report also benefited greatly from
suggestions by a large number of experts and
institutions who commented extensively on
the scope of the report and on its first version.
Furthermore, I would like to pay my tribute the
peer reviewers for their hard work. Finally, I
want to thank the HLPE-FSN Secretariat for its
precious support to our work.
The HLPE-FSN has a very noble and important
mission, to produce
scientific reports
, which
are
public goods
and serve as starting points
for debates at CFS, between actors having many
different perspectives and, often, objectives. This
report can make a real difference on the ground
and produce significant changes to alleviate the
perils of hunger and help improve nutrition. I
hope that policymakers, practitioners, all the
actors around food, agriculture and nutrition and
all concerned sectors worldwide will make the
best use of it.
Yours sincerely,
Bernard Lehmann
Chairperson of the Steering Committee
