The Impact of Behaviour of Consumers and Firms on Public Health Outcomes from Dietary Interventions
FY 2012-13
Summary
Ex ante analysis of possible dietary interventions requires an understanding of the behaviour of individuals and of firms. Reactions and substitutions in terms of food availability/production and food choices can impede the improvement of public health through dietary interventions. In this project a series of different types of dietary interventions will be examined across four countries to develop the conceptual and empirical linkages between intervention, attitudes, values and behaviour as the basis of a determination of the national population effects of particular policies. Outcomes in terms of enhanced public health through dietary intake will be quantified for the range of interventions.
