II.1.4) Short description
INFUSION ('Indian Food Systems for Improved Nutrition') is a new research project with two UK and four India partner organisations. INFUSION has a major focus on village markets, or haats, and the role that they play in the food consumption and nutrition of rural communities. The project seeks to collect extensive data from a sample of haats and from rural communities in Bihar, India during 2024-25. There are two major streams of data collection: (i) haat (market)-level and (ii) population (household)-level. Given that each of the two levels of data collection will be substantial undertakings, we have split the data collection into two Lots.
