Food Insecurity Classification in Rural Areas of Mozambique: An Integrated Analysis of Survey-Based Indicators.

National food insecurity early warning systems and food policy interventions need reliable information concerning the classification of food insecurity. The aim of this paper was to produce an acute food insecurity classification in Mozambique, by: i) analyzing food insecurity indicators individually; ii) comparing it with a new integrated analysis of survey-based indicators called the "Matrix Analysis." The Matrix results show more severe classifications than the single indicators for the analyzed districts.
