Note
The calculations at the level of Household reflect the responses of the Household head in all Sections except section 4 on Food Security.
Indeed Food Security indicators at HH level were calculated based on the response of the Woman of the household. If for any reason a women could not be surveyed in a hh, then this hh is not considered in the analysis.
