Youth Acceptance Towards Food Security Practices in Campus: Application of Food Bank
摘要
Food security is given a high emphasis in today's culture, and campuses have a big impact on young people's attitudes and behaviours. This study explores how young people, primarily college students, feel about campus food security practises. By utilising a methodology that involves surveys, interviews, and observational data, we hope to better understand the factors that influence young people's acceptance of campus-based food security initiatives. This study offers insightful information about how college settings may encourage youth interest in and understanding of food security concerns. Policies and programs that better address food insecurity on college campuses and promote student initiative can be developed by utilizing the research findings as a guide. Ultimately, creating an environment that is more sustainable and food secure requires cultivating adolescent acceptance and engagement. Our understanding of how college environments might encourage young people's involvement in, and awareness of food security has been greatly advanced by this study. All the direct connections were found to be confirmed by the data when we used partial least square structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) to analyse the data. The study's conclusions can be used to create programmes and policies that better address food insecurity on college campuses and encourage kids to get involved in problem-solving. The key to creating a future that is more sustainable and food secure is to support young people's acceptance and engagement.
