Fenntartható élelmiszer-fogyasztás a Debreceni Egyetem hallgatóinak körében

However the public interest in sustainability increases the challenges of the next decades is how we could handle the growing food demand. The global food supply have never been so complex, and the growth of the global population will reorganise it. The food consumer behaviour determines the consumer behaviour from the view of sustainability. This study aims to contribute the debate on university students’ food buying practices with regard to sustainability issues. The empirical research builds on a questionnaire survey with a sample of 500 young consumers, students of the University of Debrecen. The primary purpose of the study is to survey the daily eating habits of the Debrecenian students, to analyse what kind of special and individual’s diet do they follow. We will analyse what is the reason for special diet: some kind of disease or an individual decision. We will compare the food consumer behaviour of the students with the special diets (Vegetarian, Vegan, Paleo, etc.) with the mixed diet from the aspect of sustainability.
