Vegetable interventions in crisis settings
Humanitarian interventions increasingly include a vegetable component to help people affected by crisis create a livelihood and improve their diet. This scoping literature review uses PRISMA guidelines for scoping reviews to evaluate peer-reviewed and gray literature from scientific databases and websites of humanitarian organizations produced between 1992 and 2023 that document vegetable interventions in crisis settings. The study analyses how v…
Electrification and lower-income households in Australia
Shifting away from residential gas is important for decarbonisation, however there is little understanding of the equity implications, especially for low-income households. In this mixed methods study, we recruited a cohort of lower-income households in Australia and conducted a survey and focus group discussions to understand the barriers and enabling factors to electrifying homes. Drawing on key frameworks on energy vulnerability and adaptive c…
Income polarisation, expenditure and the Australian urban middle class
Recent years have seen growing concern about the ‘hollowing out’ of the middle class, due to processes of polarisation. In this paper, we examine different conceptualisations of polarisation, and introduce the concept of expenditure-adjusted polarisation that considers not only income, but also various key categories of expenditure at a household level: housing, groceries and meals, transport and energy. Analysing longitudinal data from the House…
Characterising infant and young child feeding practices and the consumption of poultry products in rural Tanzania
Suboptimal breastfeeding practices, early initiation of complementary feeding, and monotonous cereal-based diets have been implicated as contributors to continuing high rates of child undernutrition in sub-Saharan Africa. Nutrition-sensitive interventions, including agricultural programs that increase access to nutrient-rich vegetables, legumes, and animal-source foods, have the potential to achieve sustainable improvements in children's diets. I…
