His and Hers, time and income: How intra-household dynamics impact nutrition in agricultural households

This project seeks to understand how gender relations within the household –in aspects related to making decisions about time use and income from agricultural crops and/or wages– influence the choice of food in the household. With primary focus on principle men and women in the household, the project analyzes how economic incentives, information about adequate nutrition, the use of time and the characteristics of the household interact to influence food consumption in the households. We use five types of data collection instruments: Household questionnaire Individual questionnaire Anthropometry instrument Labor preferences game Food choice experiment
