CASEI (Twitter: @CaseiLancaster), based at Lancaster University Sociology Department, is an inter-disciplinary Centre researching on causes and solutions to a wide range of inequalities.
In this interview, Dr Fledderjohann talks about Food Security for Equitable Futures project (Twitter: @Food_Equity) and other ventures she is involved with. She also explains her work on measurement, social causes and consequences of inequalities.
We are very pleased to announce that Dr Jasmine Fledderjohann’s article, that she drafted along with Dr Amy Clair and Dr Bran Knowles, is published in the Big Issue North – Big Issue North is a charity based news-magazine that promotes socially conscious media content.
The article entitled ‘Why Don’t We Just… make policy that fulfils human rights?‘, highlights how the social problems observed during the pandemic in fact stem from long-standing structural inequalities linked to erosion of social protection policies over the past several decades.
