The main finding

In 1 of the 36 districts where people are recorded in food crisis, at most one organisation is listed. The largest is ⁨Ioba (Djoro)⁩, where 11,677 people are in food crisis and one organisation is listed.

Ioba·Thin coverage

The operational presence dataset lists organisations that reported activity through a country's coordination structures. Reporting is voluntary and incomplete, and small local organisations are the least likely to appear. A district showing few or no organisations may be well served by groups that never report. Please use the correction and declaration forms to tell us what we are missing.

Thin coverage

Districts ranked by gap score: people in food crisis divided by the number of listed organisations plus one. A high score means a lot of recorded need and very few organisations listed.
