West & Central Africa Food Security Data - Cadre Harmonise (CH) and Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) data

In line with ongoing efforts to streamline the Cadre Harmonisé (CH) process, and given the budget constraints that have limited the resources available for CH analyses in the region, only four countries conducted CH analyses during the February/March 2026 cycle. The Gambia, Senegal and Chad conducted new analyses covering both the current period (March to May 2026) and the projected period (June to August 2026). Nigeria updated the projected analysis from the October/November 2025 cycle for nine states. This included Borno State, where the current situation was also analyzed in 15 of the 23 LGAs. For the remaining countries, namely Benin, Cabo Verde, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Guinea, Liberia, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Sierra Leone and Togo, the projected situation from the October/November 2025 cycle was carried forward. In addition, the Central African Republic (CAR) conducted an IPC analysis in May 2026. There is also a global Acute Food Insecurity Country dataset.
