ChooseLocal.ca
ChooseLocal.ca JachèteQuébec.ca is a mobile application conceptualized in order to make buying local food and produce easier, and more attractive to Montrealers. In collaboration with Charles-Antoine Dupont, Charlotte Fisher, Sahar Homami and Piotr Wielopolski.
We hope to inspire Montrealers to ask questions and to inspect where their food is coming from, and to be conscious of the consequences. Users of the mobile app will have the opportunity to help each other by sharing their information with their community, by simply accepting to share their findings with the application. Their information will be gathered, sorted, and displayed in a way that we hope will show people how convenient buying local produce can be–in turn, with their help, local produce will become more available.
For example, Montrealers will be able to exchange information about where products are insufficiently labeled, and where most of their local products are being purchased. ChooseLocal.ca is both a challenge for the user's local produce consumption and a sharing platform, meant to redistribute geo-availability/scarcity information of local food.
