Kenya was the first country to use the IPC tool outside Somalia. The IPC was used as the classification system for the bi-annual food security assessment for the first time in February 2007.
The Government of Kenya is committed to implementing the IPC as part of its on-going national food security information system (FSIS).
The Kenyan FSIS includes the Arid Lands Resource Management Project (ARLMP) Early Warning System, hosted within the Office of the President. This institutional structure provides advanced information collection, early warning analysis and produces regular food security outlook bulletins and food security assessments. The IPC was introduced to complement these existing structures and fulfil a number of shortcomings recognised by stakeholders.
