Intersectoral Severity Analysis
JIAF severity classifications and funding implications
Key Analysis
If funding were prioritized only for Severity 4-5 (Emergency & Catastrophic), excluding Severity 3 (Crisis), here's what would change:
140.6M Total People in Need
7.8M Severity 3+ (Current Target)
1.0M Severity 4+ Only
6.8M People Cut (Sev 3 Excluded)
Excluding Severity 3 would cut 87% of the current target population across 1 countries with severity data.

About This Data
- JIAF = Joint Intersectoral Analysis Framework, used by OCHA for HNO/HRP planning
- Severity Levels: 1 (Minimal) to 5 (Catastrophic/Famine)
- PIN = People in Need - typically those at Severity 3+ are targeted for assistance
- Not all countries provide admin-level severity breakdowns in their JIAF datasets
- Data sourced from HDX JIAF datasets
