Dr Angelina Sanderson Bellamy has recently been awarded a £645,000 for a two year research project by the Global Food Security programme for “T-GRAINS: Transforming and Growing Relationships within regional food systems for Improved Nutrition and Sustainability”.

T-GRAINS combines a place-based approach with agricultural modelling to assess whether sustainable and nutritious diets that are socially, culturally, and economically desirable can be produced within regional landscapes.

The research team works with producers, consumers and retailers to understand the impact that direct relationships between actors has on the flow of information, the building of trust, and food purchasing and consumption.

We seek to understand how IT can catalyse these relationships to deliver healthier and environmentally sustainable diets.
