Utilising User Data from a Food-Sharing App to Evidence the "Heat-or-Eat" Dilemma (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Semple, T., Harvey, J., Rodrigues, L., Gillott, M., Figueredo, G., & Nica-Avram, G. (2024, May). Utilising User Data from a Food-Sharing App to Evidence the "Heat-or-Eat" Dilemma. Presented at 2nd Digital Footprints Conference: Linking Digital Data for Social Impact, Bristol, UK

Introduction & Background
Previous literature has found that financially vulnerable households often make involuntary spending trade-offs between necessities, particularly energy and food. This effect is especially pronounced during winter, when hom... Read More about Utilising User Data from a Food-Sharing App to Evidence the "Heat-or-Eat" Dilemma.

Foodinsecurity.london: Developing a food-insecurity prevalence map for London - a machine learning from food-sharing footprints (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Milligan, G., Nica-Avram, G., Harvey, J., & Goulding, J. (2024, May). Foodinsecurity.london: Developing a food-insecurity prevalence map for London - a machine learning from food-sharing footprints. Presented at 2nd Digital Footprints Conference: Linking Digital Data for Social Impact, Bristol, UK

Introduction & Background
The ability of policymakers to positively transform food environments requires robust empirical evidence that can inform decisions. At present, there is limited data on food-insecurity in the UK that can be used to inform i...

FIMS: Identifying, Predicting and Visualising Food Insecurity (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lucas, B., Smith, A., Smith, G., Perrat, B., Nica-Avram, G., Harvey, J., & Goulding, J. (2020, April). FIMS: Identifying, Predicting and Visualising Food Insecurity. Presented at The Web Conference 2020 - Companion of the World Wide Web Conference, WWW 2020, Taipei Taiwan

Food insecurity is a persistent and pernicious problem in the UK. Due to logistical challenges, national food insecurity statistics are unmeasured by government bodies - and this lack of data leads to any local estimates that do exist being routinely...
