SIERRA-PUENTES, Myriam Carmenza e BEJARANO RIVEROS, Angie Marcela. Food Consumption Practices of Families Displaced by the Armed Conflict living in Bosa, Bogota. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.16, n.1, pp.143-155. Epub 01-Jan-2020. ISSN 1794-9998. https://doi.org/10.15332/22563067.5547.
Colombia is the country with the highest number of people displaced by violence in the world. Most of the victims come from rural areas. The aim of this study is to survey and describe the current food consumption habits of families as they compare to those they had before their forced displacement. Employing a qualitative methodology, the statements of five women victims of forced displacement who settled with their families in Bosa, Bogotá, were analyzed and theorized. Through a semi-structured interview, the information was collected and analyzed with the N-vivo 11 software, following the grounded theory analysis. The findings reveal that the food consumption habits before displacement are characterized by the gathering of food through agricultural practices like crop growing and by the consumption of a minimum of three meals a day. Nowadays, the portion size of the daily meals has diminished, together with the grocery purchase frequency and the sources of food. In conclusion, food consumption practices have been transformed, which has forced families to change their diet to one more precarious and of poorer quality.
