Resumen
En este articulo nos basamos en una revisión documental de datos cualitativos −de la investigación participativa sobre el coste de los alimentos de 2001-2017 realizada por FoodARC y su socios en Nueva Escocia (NE), Canadá− sobre las experiencias de mujeres con la inseguridad alimentaria (IA) y las implicaciones de su participación en la investigación de acción participativa (IAP), para examinar: 1) el estigma, la vergüenza, la marginación y la exclusión inducidas por la IA experimentada por mujeres con bajos ingresos, solitarias y ama de case en NE y el impacto para su salud y bienestar; 2) cómo los enfoques de IAP han contribuido a la capacidad de oponerse a la vergüenza y al desarrollo de otras capacidades a nivel individual, organizacional, comunitario y de sistemas para abordar la IA. Los resultados demuestran evidencia de empoderamiento personal y colectivo de las mujeres por participación en la IAP. Las mujeres han co-creado conocimientos y agencia personal y colectiva que han servido para ayudar a cambiar el discurso sobre la IA hacia enfoques más avanzados.
