Trajectories into famine
Drawing on famine systems theory, this paper focuses on the factors that form a trajectory into famine. • Four cases of famine trajectories are reviewed from recent famines or near famine crises. • Identifying the factors that form a trajectory could help to more effectively disrupt those trajectories. • The shape of the trajectory is less important that the identifying its starting point. The prevention of famine is once again a significant huma…
Insights from social-ecological systems thinking for understanding and preventing famine
The risk of famine is rising in many countries today. Bold changes to famine information and response systems are urgently needed to improve capacities to prevent famine. To this end, the paper identifies six insights from social-ecological systems (SES) thinking for understanding and preventing famine. It argues that a state of famine emerges from human-environment interdependencies, complex causality, and non-linear system dynamics, shaped by h…
Using the household hunger scale to improve analysis and classification of severe food insecurity in famine-risk conditions
Analysing Famine
Famine means destitution, increased severe malnutrition, disease, excess death and the breakdown of institutions and social norms. Politically, it means a failure of governance – a failure to provide the most basic of protections. Because of both its human and political meanings, ‘famine’ can be a shocking term. This is turn makes the analysis – and especially declaration – of famine a very sensitive subject. This paper synthesises the findings f…

Aids, drought, and child malnutrition in southern Africa
Objective To investigate trends in child malnutrition in six countries in southern Africa, in relation to the HIV epidemic and drought in crop years 2001/2 and 2002/3. Design Epidemiological analysis of sub-national and national surveys with related data. Setting Data from Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Swaziland, Zambia and Zimbabwe, compiled and analysed under UNICEF auspices. Subjects Secondary data: children 0–5 years for weight-for-age; HIV pr…
