FINATA

Food insecurity is often present among food bank users but its determinants and influencing factors are widely undetermined. Food bank users’ food security status, their shopping behavior, availability of social support and other factors that might affect food insecurity among this population group will be assessed. Results will be used to better adapt the personal and structural resources within the German food bank system to their users in urban and rural areas, and to establish protective and supportive measures to better serve the needs of this vulnerable population group.
