Together with other key partners, FAO has been pioneering resilience measurement and analysis with respect to food insecurity through the Resilience Index Measurement and Analysis (RIMA) 2 model which has been used to undertake the present analysis. This RIMA index identifies and weighs the six pillars and relating factors that contribute to make household resilient to shocks affecting their food security. It also allows tracing the stability of these factors over time. The pillars that constitute the FAO-RIMA model are: Adaptive Capacity (AC), Access to Basic Services (ABS), Assets (AST), Income and Food Access (IFA), Sensitivity (S), and Social Safety Nets (SSN), The resilience analysis using the FAO RIMA model provides the evidence for more effectively designing, delivering, monitoring and evaluating assistance to populations in need, based on what they need most.
