英格兰儿童超重和肥胖率继续上升，沿着最贫困地区和最贫困地区儿童之间肥胖患病率的差距越来越大。为了解决儿童肥胖问题，英国政府越来越多地考虑如何干预影响人们购买的（食品）环境，而不是仅仅关注个人的健康行为。随着COVID-19大流行和随后的封城措施迅速改变了英国的生活，了解这些变化如何影响食品实践和食品环境至关重要。这项远程纵向定性研究旨在探索COVID-19疫情及其影响如何塑造家庭与食物和食物环境的关系。将从英格兰的三个案例研究地点招募60-80名学龄或托儿所儿童的父母/照顾者，在一年的时间里，在三个时间点参加半结构化面试和一系列灵活的创造性活动。调查结果将提供切实可行的政策见解英格兰的肥胖预防策略，以及方法论的见解进行研究到生活经验远程。
Rates of childhood overweight and obesity continue to rise in England, along with a growing gap in obesity prevalence between children in the most and least deprived areas. To address child obesity, the UK government is increasingly considering how to intervene in the (food) environments that shape people's purchases, rather than focusing solely on individual health behaviors. With the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns having rapidly reconfigured life in the UK, it is important to understand how these changes may have impacted food practices and engagement with food environments. This remote, longitudinal qualitative study seeks to explore how the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts are shaping families relationships with the food and the food environment. A sample of 60-80 parents/carers of school or nursery-aged children will be recruited from across three case study sites in England to take part in semi-structured interviews and set of flexible creative activities at three time points over the course of a year. Findings will provide practical policy insights for England's obesity prevention strategy as well as methodological insights in terms of conducting research into lived experience remotely.
