Navigating student life

We hope to better understand the challenges students face and the types of support they need to eat healthy and to prevent food insecurity, so we can inform the development of effective programmes and support systems for students at the University of Auckland.

The study has two parts:

1. Survey: You will be asked to complete a few questions about yourself, your studies, health and food security. 
2. Focus group or individual interview: During the focus group or interview, we will talk about your experience of starting university, healthy eating and food security. We would also like to know your thoughts on what possible university-based initiatives could support you and other students to eat healthily.

You may take part in this study if you :

• are enrolled as an undergraduate student at the University of Auckland 
• live in Aotearoa, New Zealand 
• are willing to attend a focus group or individual interview
