Sustaining scenarios
We evaluate the results of a food system scenarios workshop in Flint, Michigan designed to co-create actionable pathways toward desirable futures in the medium-term (20 years), alongside analysis from practitioners one year post workshop. The goal of the scenario planning process is to support the translation and usability of research findings beyond project boundaries through the engagement of diverse voices and perspectives, combining research …

Stories and reflections on gikinawaabi
Indigenous Knowledge can inform the field of early childhood development. • The study team used participatory and Indigenous methodological approaches. • The study team included Michigan-based researchers, administrators from Indigenous early childhood programs, and Indigenous community members. • Using PhotoVoice, the team documented that traditional practices and relationships in Michigan Indigenous families are often shared with children throu…
Recipe for a scenario
In this paper we present an overview of future-oriented research in sustainability science and place-based research and offer a tool for researchers and community partners to use to guide participatory scenario planning activities that result in actionable steps toward achieving sustainable futures. Within place-based community-engaged research projects, future-oriented methods, such as visioning and participatory scenario planning, have been inc…
Navigating community engagement in participatory modeling of food systems
This paper describes the participatory modeling experiences of five discrete teams across the U.S. working to develop models of food systems to identify leverage points and policies to induce food system transformation. Collaboration between academic and community partners within these individual modeling processes enables teams to address food systems complexity, integrate scientific evidence and local knowledge into models, while improving a mo…
The resilience and viability of farmers markets in the United States as an alternative food network
Defining success in community-university partnerships
The success of responsible research and innovation (RRI) work is as much about the process of partnership as it is about the products and outcomes. In this paper, we present lessons learned from the first three years of a participatory modeling (PM) research project based on RRI principles and focused on the transformation of the food system in Flint, Michigan through identification of leverage points. Participatory modeling is a type of communit…
Manager and vendor perceptions of farmers’ markets’ impacts on communities
Purpose The purposes of this paper are to: (1) characterize farmers’ market manager and vendor perceptions of the economic, social and environmental impact markets have on their local communities; and (2) how those impacts are tracked and communicated to market actors and the local community. Design/methodology/approach Twenty-nine semistructured interviews were conducted with market managers and vendors across four farmers’ markets within Michig…
Blurring the boundaries
The globalized and interconnected nature of food systems provides many examples of panarchies within social-ecological systems. However, few are analyzed using panarchy theory, particularly urban food systems, or in a comparative manner. We aimed to broaden the examination of cross-scale dynamics of food systems by applying panarchy theory through comparative study of three urban food systems: Flint, Michigan, Cleveland, Ohio, and Pittsburgh, Pen…
Language, Publication, and the Advancement of Feminist Praxis
Western voices from publications predominantly in English dominate conversations surrounding knowledge production, consumption, and dissemination, which in turn shapes social policy. To achieve feminist epistemological frameworks that many academic publications espouse, we call for publications that are accessible and equitable not only for academics, but also for community partners and activists. To ensure a role for diverse voices, we must remo…
Unhealthy Aid
In this paper, I examine the disconnect between government and NGO responses to Cyclone Pam, and previous healthy food initiatives in Port Vila, Vanuatu. Decades of nutrition education programs across Vanuatu have urged families to limit their consumption of tinned meat and imported food in favour of locally grown fruits and vegetables. These dietary guidelines call on families to watch their food consumption in order to raise healthy children an…
Good Food, Bad Food, and White Rice
Visual-narrative elicitation, a process combining photo elicitation and pile sorting in applied medical anthropology, sheds light on food consumption patterns in urban areas of Vanuatu where childhood malnutrition is a persistent problem. Groups of participants took photographs of the foods they feed their children, and the resources and barriers they encounter in accessing foodstuffs. This revealed how imported and local foods are assigned value…
Hidden Circuits of Communal Childrearing
The circulation of children among family members can have a dramatic impact on child health, contributing to the pervasive problem of childhood under-nutrition Vanuatu faces. Kin, particularly elders, have great influence on decisions regarding infant and child feeding practices, as well as with whom the child resides. Intervening kin can dictate the physical relocation of children through informal systems of adoption for varying lengths of time.…
The Dynamics of Mobility
Adoption, fosterage, and child exchange constitute major themes in the literature on Pacific Island societies. However, a world where the movement of people has both intensified and become more complex challenges existing approaches to the circulation of children. We examine diverse conditions of contemporary child circulation: the shift from rural to urban to international migration; the capacities of kinship systems to adapt to this change; and…
Public eating, private pain
This article describes how the private problem of food insecurity in Vanuatu becomes public when children seek community feasts to cope with inadequate family food resources. Ethnographic data reveal that community members, particularly women who serve food at feasts, are increasingly aware of the rise in hungry children attending feasts. This is the subject of gossip, as public eating becomes a way that children inadvertently reveal private pain…
