Acknowledgements

This handbook is the result of a joint effort both as regards its methodological conception and its final form. Special thanks go to all those who are mentioned in the appendix for their active collaboration in the writing of this book. It would nevertheless be unfair to overlook the many different professionals who participated in the setting up of FSIEWS in their countries, whose work and constant search for solutions suited to the local situations enabled us to progressively adapt the theoretical concepts and have a clear and realistic global view of food security monitoring. This handbook was written at FAO but the hundreds of professionals of different nationalities (mainly in the sectors of agriculture, stock farming, fisheries, economics and development sociology, health and nutrition) who have worked on this analysis should consider this book as theirs.
