DESCRIPTION:Jennie’s main research interest focuses on a new area of res
 earch relating to food security\, exploring dietary choices combining need
  for environmental sustainability within the diet with dietary recommendat
 ions for health. With the recognition that dietary choices can have a sign
 ificant impact on the environment\, it is important to understanding what 
 sustainable diets means in terms of the food choices we should be making f
 or health\, climate change\, social and ethical reasons.  The aim of this 
 research programme is to bring together these different elements of sustai
 nability to give a greater understanding of the synergies and conflicts in
  terms of dietary intake and explore some of the attitudes and barriers to
  dietary change of consumers. Some of her previous research focused on met
 hodology for the evaluation of community-based nutrition related policies 
 and intervention\, including the development of an evaluation framework fo
 r nutrition related policies and interventions.
