If current trends in food insecurity continue then the diets of low-income people may become characterised by the inclusion of significant amounts of donated and surplus food accessed via the third-sector. These developments have yet to be integrated into macro models and concepts of the food environment. Addressing this caveat is necessary in order to both help build an evidence base to challenge policies that exacerbate the drivers of food insecurity and to inform interventions aimed at improving the diets of disadvantaged populations.
如果当前食品不安全的趋势持续下去,那么低收入人群的饮食可能会以大量通过第三部门获得的捐赠和剩余食品为特征。这些发展尚未纳入宏观模型和食品环境概念中。为了帮助建立一个证据基础,以挑战加剧食品不安全驱动因素的政策,并为旨在改善弱势群体饮食的干预措施提供信息,有必要解决这一警告。
