Currently, dramatic increase in world population, rapid urbanization of world population, changes in food demand and dietary composition, increasing pressure on limited natural resources, escalating climate change effect and fluctuating food prices result in a huge emphasis on food security studies as a contemporary issue .As a subject, food security studies tend to be considered at national or household level in a top-down approach and they are likely to handle the issue as restricted to a single sector (mostly agriculture) boundary. The aim of this study is to integrate the food security improvement efforts to the regional development strategy generation processes creating an embedded food security tool for regional development strategies using a value chain-based approach.

Understanding individual behavior and moral judgments on food waste in a university cafeteria
Özokcu, Selin; Özdemir, Özlem; Beklioğlu, Meryem; Department of Earth System Science (2021-11-18)
Along with the global food crisis, climate change, population growth, urbanization, enlarging middle class, and shifts in consumption patterns, food waste became a severe problem to tackle. Around one-third of produced food, which approximates to 1.3 billion tonnes per year, has been globally wasted throughout the food supply chain. A considerable literature has proliferated around the theme of food waste; and yet the drivers of consumer-level food waste in emerging economies remains unattended. This disser...
Environmental sustainability assessment using dynamic Autoregressive-Distributed Lag simulations-Nexus between greenhouse gas emissions, biomass energy, food and economic growth
Sarkodie, Samuel Asumadu; Strezov, Vladimir; Weldekidan, Haftom; Asamoah, Ernest Frimpong; Owusu, Phebe Asantewaa; Doyi, Israel Nutifafa Yawo (Elsevier BV, 2019-06-10)
Increasing population demand has triggered the enhancement of food production, energy consumption and economic development, however, its impact on climate change has become a global concern. This study applied a novel environmental sustainability assessment tool using dynamic Autoregressive-Distributed Lag (ARDL) simulations for model estimation of the relationships between greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, energy, biomass, food and economic growth for Australia using data spanning from 1970 to 2017. The stud...
An Investigation on Benefit-Cost Analysis of Greenhouse Structures in Antalya
Sarı, Ramazan; Pekeriçli, Mehmet Koray (2020-11-12)
Significant population increase across the world, loss of cultivable land and increasing demand for food put pressure on agriculture. To meet the demand, greenhouses are built, which are, light structures with transparent cladding material in order to provide controlled microclimatic environment proper for plant production. Conceptually, greenhouses are similar with manufacturing buildings where a controlled environment for manufacturing and production have been provided and proper spaces...
Dynamics of consumer behavior and policies in sustainable food systems in Turkey
Atay Haspolat, Nihan; Kalaycıoğlu, Hediye Sibel; Department of Social Policy (2020-11)
This thesis examined causes and results of consumer behaviors, which determine the dynamics of consumption in sustainable food systems and analyzed the effectiveness of public policies on food consumption in Turkey. In this context, the structure of sustainable food systems, factors affecting food consumers’ behaviors and preferences and public policies and policy implications towards food consumers in Turkey are examined. In addition, semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with a purposively ch...
Adaptation and validation of the sustainability consciousness questionnaire for teacher candidates
Güler, Fulden; Şen, Mehmet; Özdemir, Mine; Öztekin, Ceren (2018-09-07)
There are several problems encountered in developing countries such as rapid population growth, deforestation, urbanization and these problems lead to consumption of natural resources (UNESCO, 2006). The term sustainable development (SD) is highlighted in the last decades to deal with the problems of the globalized world. One of the earlier studies, Brundtland Report (WCET, 1987) defined SD as “development that meets the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations ...
