The Food and Family Research Group helps families make informed, culturally relevant food choices that support better health and long-term well-being. Our work addresses the root causes of food insecurity through practical, evidence-based interventions grounded in local realities. By combining research with community engagement, we empower families to improve their diets, reduce reliance on processed foods, and build resilience through traditional food systems. Our findings also contribute to the development of more informed, context-specific nutrition strategies
