Food Security Vulnerability Index

The Food Security Vulnerability Index (FSVI) summarizes how exposed a local government is to food insecurity, combining multiple risk factors into a single score from 0 to 1.

This map covers Karnali Province, Nepal, with 10 districts and 79 local governments.

Lower scores indicate stronger resilience and better access, while higher scores signal greater risk and the need for targeted support.

Use this map to compare hotspots across local governments and prioritize programs where vulnerability is highest.
