Food Security Cluster
Information Management
When an emergency strikes, among the responsibilities of a country-level
Food Security Cluster is to:
Coordinate partner responses to ensure that planning
and implementation of food security responses avoid
gaps and duplications, and are comparable and timely
to affected populations.
 Information Management is essential
4. FSC Information Management
Role of IM Officer
• Fundamental to the job is the ability to
collect and analyse data as well as to
present information in a way that is easily
understood by the cluster members.
• Sometimes this is through graphic means
such a mapping but also through tables,
charts, and narrative writing. Other times it
involves discussing the information directly
with the decision makers.

The Purpose of the FSC IM Tool
• Make data collection, processing and response analysis
globally comparable and standardized
• Make setting up a country-FSC IM System faster
• Allow Global Support Team provide support more
efficiently (standardized systems)
• By producing project reports and maps the IM tool will
visualize gaps and overlaps of partner responses
• Forward-looking (planning info), allows for more detailed
analysis

Avoid duplication of humanitarian assistance, especially
considering issues of food availability, access and utilization.
Consistent information sharing will facilitate project tracking
and monitoring, and result in evidence based decision making
for strategic intervention and improved implementation.
