Dr Helen Harris-Fry

Associate Professor - Wellcome Fellow

United Kingdom

I am an Associate Professor of Nutrition at LSHTM and co-director of the Global Health Economics Centre (GHECO). My work focuses on ensuring people's right to food and eliminating hunger worldwide. Primarily, my work involves co-designing and evaluating complex nutrition programs and policies, including ecological, agricultural, social, behavioural, and food-based interventions. I am especially interested in bridging nutrition and economics disciplines to improve our understandings of social inequities within and between households, and to understand how inequities can be redressed to improve nutrition policy and outcomes.

Teaching

I co-organise the 'Maternal and Child Nutrition' module, and teach on other parts of the Nutrition for Global Health MSc.

I also co-organise a mentoring scheme in the ANH Academy, aiming to support early career professionals working in agriculture, nutrition, and health.

Research

I hold a Wellcome Trust fellowship in which I am modelling the health and income costs of gender inequity and inefficient intra-household resource allocation using 11 different datasets from low- and middle-income countries. Through my fellowship, I am also affiliated UCL Centre for Global Health Economics and the Department of Economics at Northwestern University.

I lead LSHTM's contribution to the CAPPT project, a randomised trial testing the effectiveness of an interpersonal counselling intervention aiming to reduce anaemia in pregnancy in rural Nepal.

I am a co-investigator on UPAVAN, a cluster randomised trial of three nutrition-sensitive agriculture interventions in rural Odisha, India, as well as the follow-on study (m-UPAVAN) testing the feasibility of remote adaptions of this intervention.

I advise on diet measurement on MicroPoll, a project exploring linkages between local pollinator populations and dietary quality led by Bristol University and HERD international.

I also advise the nutrition aspects of the new strategy for Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation with Center for Gender Equity at Stanford University, and have advised World Food Programme Nepal on their rice fortification strategy.
