Measuring individual and household food security: potential and challenges in nutritional and social science collaboration
Two main types of indicators are implemented to measure the extent of individual and household food security—those that focus on food eaters' experience and their personal assessment of their situation, and those that rely on a food consumption measurement such as the dietary diversity score. The latter takes stock of the nutritional quality of people's diets and the relevance of its findings may be enhanced if supplemented by more comprehensive approaches to food practices and food eaters' viewpoints.
