Designing for behaviour change
A study of food wastage in boys hostel mess of SPA-Bhopal with Jayant Kumar
The project was about finding the reasons causing food wastage in Boys Hostel 1 mess of SPA Bhopal and accordingly devising interventions that can minimise it.
‘Dad, is there food in there ?’ This was part of a study that I along with one of my classmates ( Jayant Kumar) were doing on food wastage in a mess of SPA-Bhopal. It was a surprise to us as it came out of a survey that a significant number of individuals in a college of national importance were indifferent to food wastage. This installation ( Charcoal on paper ) is one of the many that were ideated. Here we can see a girl asking her dad if there is food, meanwhile the helpless father stares inside the Physical dustbin where the students actually throw food waste in the mess.
