Nutrition Poor Clinical Trial
Official title:
Assessing and Amplifying Parent Support for Locally Sourced Produce in Barbados
This study seeks to promote consumption of locally sourced foods among school going children in Barbados. The study targets parents/care givers of school going children aged 18 years and below. Parents have been chosen as the target for this study because they shape the meals that their children consume through two primary routes; a) direct purchase of meal ingredients and b) political influence on school based meal programs. The study seeks to achieve this by first identifying the behavioral obstacles for consumption of locally sourced produce through exploratory and desk research and then designing interventions to address the obstacles.

Primary | Voucher Selection | Knowledge, attitudes and political support for local food, as well as a final measure of whether the respondent would rather receive a voucher for a store that sells local produce or a voucher for a store that sells imported food.
Parents will be incentivized for their participation in the study with 10 Bajan Dollars for the purchase of food, and will be entered into a sweepstakes for 2000 Bajan Dollars (1,000 USD). At the end of the intervention given above, they are asked whether they would like a voucher for either: A fast food restaurant A local produce market The voucher selection is an incentive-compatible proxy for purchasing local produce or imported goods. This choice is made in full awareness of the frictions that parents face to sourcing produce from farmers markets, versus the ease of a supermarket: the study measures the impact of the interventions on behavior change in their real context, not in a hypothetical, friction-free choice environment. |

Primary | Political support for prioritization of local food | Parents will be asked to rank order their preference for government policies among numerous (real) options -from job creation programs to climate change; embedded in that list will be a program for locally sourced produce for kids. Each arm's average ranking for the local produce option serves as the political support outcome measure. | Through study completion, an average of 1 year |
