• Survival and livelihoods protection threshold

Change in population's livelihoods compared with a reference level (pre disaster level, baseline level, etc.) This indicator measures the population / households / productive organisations / micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME) capacity to restore their livelihoods (sources of food and income). • It includes in-kind distributions (seeds, livestock, tools, etc.) that allow target population to restore their livelihoods • It includes cash distribution interventions to restart target population's livelihoods • It includes all kind of livelihood restarting interventions (sources of food and income) This indicator can also include the "build back better" approach, which not just restore what households/productive groups had before the crisis/shock, but also improve their livelihood to make them more resilient and sustainable. Definitions: • MSME: micro, small and medium enterprises (formal or informal)

Geography/Livelihoods zone; Gender, age, disabilities, chronic diseases (for individuals, associations members, etc.); Head of household’s gender, age, disabilities, chronic diseases, dependency ratio (for households), and any other relevant criteria, such as urban/rural context, religious, ethnic or political identities; Wealth groups; Livelihoods group (e.g. pastoralist, farmers, traders); Period to achieve the objective;

• Remain stable or increase

Both secondary and primary data collection can be used according to context. • Baseline/Endline. If multiyear programme consider also a mid-term evaluation. • Secondary data. Reliable/relevant sources from other actors, clusters or government (e.g. assessment information, reference to a normal situation). Unit of Measurement: Population, but can also be households or productive organisations, or MSME. If percentage: • Numerator: Number of target population that have restored/improved their livelihood activities • Denominator: Total number of target population Data Collection methods: Secondary data analysis; Households Surveys; MSME or productive organisations records, Focus Group Discussion, key informant interviews and surveys.

• Economic Security

X% of target population (from those Y% are women) restore their livelihood activity to pre disaster level in the urban area of Freetown

Measure this indicator asking households directly about the recovery of their livelihood activities, and through questions related to it (e.g. number of ha planted and/or harvested, number of daily labour hired, number of heads of livestock). For productive organisations and MSME (micro, small and medium enterprises) use also information in their records (sales, employees/ members, etc.) Improvement/increase threshold must be defined in advance using baseline and secondary information. Consider seasonal calendar and market price variations throughout the year to determine when to measure the indicator.
