SUMMARY:PriceWise - A grocery prices database built by and for budget-conscious communities
DESCRIPTION:Food prices are too *&#$ high! \nEveryone is talking about grocery price inflation\, but how do we really figure out individual item price changes? Let alone keep track of prices across different stores and neighborhoods? In combination with recessionary trends and other food justice issues\, it’s stressful for budget-conscious people to make well-informed buying decisions. \nThis talk will demo an exciting new community tool PriceWise. This web application creates a database of food prices to help families and individuals easily digitize their grocery receipts and work together to pool that data across their community. The tool uses NYC OpenData to connect these prices with stores and neighborhoods. \nDesigner and developer Shiva Muthiah will talk about how and why they built this tool\, and discuss why making food pricing more legible can help policy-makers address food justice challenges.
