Abstract
Household food security is a complex societal problem requiring a multifaceted approach to evidence-based policy design. We present a case-study of interdisciplinary pedagogy derived from a collaboration between mathematical sciences and public health nutrition to deliver content on food security based on those two disciplines together with complex systems science and social sciences. This content was designed as a five-lecture series and delivered for students in two universities, one in the UK and one in Australia, with different backgrounds and within different courses where consideration of food security was part of each. Student evaluations were gathered via a Qualtrics survey and module convener feedback was sought for the five-lecture series within the broader modules. We provide an overview of the content and context of the design and delivery, and the views of module conveners and of students as evidenced by the survey. We discuss the experience of designing interdisciplinary teaching and learning in the light of interdisciplinary pedagogy theory, with a particular focus on language.
