Abstract
World Food Programme in close collaboration with Government of Armenia and United Nations partners decided to conduct a rapid assessment including a review of secondary data at macro-level and a rapid appraisal using qualitative tools among livelihood groups considered to be the most vulnerable in the context of the current crisis - either through direct exposure and/or low level of resilience. The assessment aimed at eliciting how the global financial crisis is manifested in the country and how impacts are being transmitted to the household level. The findings of the assessment assist in the establishment of a monitoring system to provide real-time evidence for timely programme decision-making by WFP and partners to mitigate the impacts on the most vulnerable population groups over time.
The type of the assessment is Comprehensive Food Security and Vulnerability Analysis (CFSVA).
