摘要：The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence of food and nutritional security in the households of Villa Clarin, through the application of the Scales of food security used in the National Survey of the Nutritional Situation ENSIN 2010. Villa Clarin is located to 200 m of the Clarin channel next to Magdalena river, in front of the village of Palermo, municipality of Sitio Nuevo, Magdalena. Formed by 84 families, considered a settlement of victims of the armed conflict of the departments (Magdalena, Cesar, Bolivar), established approximately in the year 2000. The type of study was descriptive with a quantitative approach. The 69 households surveyed showed a prevalence of food insecurity of 92.7%, with both scales (higher-than the national proportion reported in ENSIN 2010, 42.7%). However, in the Latin American scale of food security, for having a stricter filter, the level of severe food insecurity was 59.4%, higher than the one showed by the food security scale at home with 23.2%. The food insecurity was significantly associated with sociodemographic characteristics, housing conditions and nutritional status. These results indicate that the settlement must have access to the food and nutritional security policies designed by the government for post-conflict actions.
