Food Prices For Nutrition

Food Prices for Nutrition provides indicators on the cost and affordability of a healthy diet (CoAHD) in each country, showing the population’s physical and economic access to sufficient quantities of locally available items for an active and healthy life. It also provides indicators on the cost and affordability of an energy-sufficient diet and of a nutrient-adequate diet. These indicators are explained in detail in the Food Prices for Nutrition DataHub here: https://www.worldbank.org/foodpricesfornutrition.The database version Food Prices for Nutrition 1.0 contains indicators that were estimated in July 2022, based on 2017 global food retail price data from the International Comparison Program (ICP), when relevant affordability indicators were calculated based on the available Poverty and Inequality Platform (PIP) data from the World Bank expressed in 2011 purchasing power parity terms (PPP). These include indicators measuring the ratio between diet costs and international food poverty lines and indicators measuring the share and volume of the population unable to afford each diet, based on income distributions observed in each country. Countries' income classifications at the aggregate reporting level follow the calendar year of 2020 (the fiscal year of 2022 of the World Bank). The Cost and Affordability of a Healthy Diet indicators reported in the United Nations' State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2022 correspond to those in version 1.0.The database version Food Prices for Nutrition 1.1 updates these aforementioned affordability indicators using the latest international poverty lines and PIP data expressed in 2017 PPP-based dollars.The database version Food Prices for Nutrition 2.0, estimated in July 2023, uses the latest PIP data expressed in 2017 PPP-based dollars. Countries' income classifications at the aggregate reporting level follow the calendar year of 2021 (the fiscal year of 2023 of the World Bank). The Cost and Affordability of a Healthy Diet indicators reported in the United Nations' State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2023 correspond to those in version 2.0.The database version Food Prices for Nutrition 2.1 updates the affordability indicators using the latest PIP data expressed in 2017 PPP-based dollars and population data from the WDI updated in the fall of 2023.The database version Food Prices for Nutrition 3.0, estimated in July 2024, uses the 2021 global food retail price data from the ICP and updates the methodology of calculating the affordability indicators, including indicators measuring the ratio between diet costs and international food poverty lines and indicators measuring the share and volume of the population unable to afford each diet, and they are based on the latest PIP data expressed in 2017 PPP-based dollars. For the first time, estimates for the prevalence and number of people unable to afford a healthy diet were imputed for countries with missing information based on their regional and global aggregates. Countries' income classifications at the aggregate reporting level follow the calendar year of 2022 standard (the fiscal year of 2024 of the World Bank). The Cost and Affordability of a Healthy Diet indicators reported in the United Nations' State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2024 correspond to those in version 3.0.The database version Food Prices for Nutrition 3.1 updates the affordability indicators using the latest PIP data expressed in 2017 PPP-based dollars and population data from the World Population Prospect by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA).
