The objectives of a nutrition information system in the context of emergency settings focus
specifically on;
- Advocacy as a means of highlighting an evolving crisis.
- Identification of appropriate response strategies that include non-food as well as food
assistance to address the underlying causes of malnutrition.
- Triggering a response to provide a trend analysis focusing on the magnitude of change.
This may trigger a more in-depth assessment which in turn may lead to response.
- Targeting areas that are more at risk or in greater need of assistance.
- Identification of malnourished children.
