dietry: Utilities for Dietary Intake Indicators for Food Security Assessments

Project Status: WIP – Initial development is in progress, but there has not yet been a stable, usable release suitable for the public. Lifecycle: experimental

Food security assessments utilise several dietary intake indicators as proxy measures for diet quality, diet sufficiency, and food availability either at individual or household level. Utilities for recoding and calculating these indicators support in establishing consistent and reliable results.
