Country: United Republic of Tanzania Source: World Food Programme Please refer to the attached file. HIGHLIGHTS Singida DC has the highest prevalence of insufficient food consumption (17 percent). Compared to the first round, Shinyanga DC had a significant deterioration in food consumption, while Kondoa DC (Dodoma region) had a significant improvement. Micheweni and Wete clustered districts (North Pemba region) have the highest prevalence of households resorting to crisis or above food-based coping strategy compared to other districts (17 percent). Meatu (Simiyu region) and Chamwino (Dodoma region) districts have shown significant improvements from the previous round. Kiteto district (Tanga region) and Kaskazini district (North Unguja) have the highest prevalence of crisis and emergency livelihood coping strategies compared to other districts with 41 percent. Bahi, Meatu, Korogwe and Mkinga clustered districts showed a significant improvement compared to the previous round. Overall, in the 30 districts analyzed, 67 percent of women aged 18 to 49 years consumed at least 5 out of 10 food groups in the previous day or night. Overall, only 30 percent of children 6–23 months of age consumed foods and beverages from at least five out of eight defined food groups during the previous day. Mkalama (Singida region) and Kondoa DC (Dodoma region) have the highest percentage of household dependent on agriculture, livestock, and fishing (82 percent) while the districts of Kaskazini (North Unguja region), Kati and Kusini clustered districts (South Unguja region) and Micheweni and Wete clustered districts (North Pemba region), have the largest percentage of households relying on assistance (4 percent). Households in Micheweni and Wete clustered districts (North Pemba) and Handeni DC (Tanga) have the highest rate of facing challenges to access the market at 36 percent. Based on the indicators for food consumption, food-based coping strategies, and livelihood coping strategies, Kaskazini B district (North Unguja), Kiteto district (Manyara region), and Maswa district (Simiyu region) are identified as more vulnerable. The situation in these areas should be closely monitored in the next round. Overview Tanzania Country Office has been conducting remote food security monitoring (mVAM) in all regions in Tanzania mainland and Zanzibar since the year 2020. mVAM has facilitated real time food security analysis to update donors, partners and other actors on trends in food security during COVID 19 and beyond. To tailor mVAM investment more to the programmatic needs of WFP Tanzania, the country office redesigned the survey sampling approach from data collection at regional level to district level, in order to assess food insecurity at a more granular level. To allow more useful district level information, WFP Tanzania selected 30 vulnerable districts as per criteria established by the Country Office. Data collection frequency was also reduced from continuous to three rounds aligned with different phases of agricultural production (i.e. post-harvest following the main agriculture season; start of lean season and the second agricultural season for bimodal rainfall districts).
