The purpose of this document is to provide food security and nutrition practitioners conducting an IPC pilot with practical information on “what to do”, “how to do it”, “when to do it” and “pitfalls to avoid” for the essential steps of the process.
Analysts from Bangladesh, Cambodia, Nepal, Pakistan and the Philippines successfully piloted IPC in their respective countries during 2012 with technical support from the IPC Asia Regional Support Unit (RSU) and funding from the European Commission Directorate- General for Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection (ECHO). This check-list type compilation of suggestions and tips collected from these experiences is intended to serve as a user-friendly tool in support of a further expansion of IPC in Asia and other parts of the world.
