The project extends the research on food alternatives to relations between the informal and the conventional food systems, looking at both from the perspective of resilience. The aim is to find out about the volume and valorisations of food brought to households from a diversity of sources (purchase, self-provisioning, sharing). Key sources of data are focus groups, interviews and survey. The results, offering novel understanding of households’ food resilience, will shape international debates about social resilience and the relationship between conventional and informal food systems.
