Track: Humanitarian Aid
Authors: Daniel ANDRIANTSIMBA

CRS-Madagascar has received a Development Food Assistance Program funded by USAID. This project provides food rations to pregnant/lactating women using the First 1000Days approach. The project plans to target 42,000 mother-child pairs by distributing food rations on a monthly basis from approximately 200 distribution sites. The fundamental problem GIS is attempting to address is site selection. CRS and ESRI develop Predictive Analysis to assist in food distribution site planning and management.
