Family Food Environment
Barriers to acquiring affordable and nutritious food in new zealand households
The Family Food Environment Survey (FFES) is a cross-sectional survey of 136 New Zealand families living in Dunedin and Wellington with one or more children aged between five and 18 years. The aim of the FFES was to describe environmental and behavioural factors with respect to access to food, purchasing food and meal-planning and patterns, and to examine how they differ by socio-economic status and their relationship to food security.
