IPC EVENTS

The IPC Level 1 Training aims at supporting participants in becoming qualified “IPC Analyst” at global, regional and country levels. This training is specifically designed to enable participants to explain and describe the IPC approach and value for decision support and actively engage in IPC Analysis. The level 1 training is part of the IPC Certification Programme which includes specific requirements and steps to become a qualified “IPC Trainer and Facilitator” (Level 2) and “IPC Expert” (Level 3). 

The IPC analysis of Acute Food Insecurity is performed after each main assessment and whenever it is necessary (e.g. after a shock or disaster). During the analysis workshop, the food insecurity situation is determined by applying the IPC approach and procedures, which involve a range of outcomes based on international standards including food consumption levels, livelihood changes, nutritional status, and mortality. Attending IPC Analyses is one of the key requirements for obtaining the IPC certification as “IPC Analyst” and “IPC Trainer and Facilitator” in the IPC Acute Food Insecurity classification.
