Conny’s research on food systems and food sovereignty investigates the historical, political-economic and socio-cultural contexts of contemporary foodscapes and related food practices and subsequent health outcomes. Her other research focus is on active living and physical activity practices and policies, for example on how local authority transport planning policies can support equitable and sustainable active travel.

Conny’s research addresses key planetary health priorities to create healthy, sustainable and socially just environments with a focus particularly on food systems for better nutrition and healthy infrastructure to support physically active lives.
