Challenge Does Australia’s food relief governance support the fulfilment of the human right to adequate food. Evaluating the governance of food relief should be designed to tackle the full range of challenges facing individual food security and the fulfilment of the right to food in Australia.
Solution Taking a solutions-oriented approach, the project aims to reimagine how food relief systems could be better designed to tackle the full range of challenges that contribute to food insecurity. It will explore what a rights-based model of food relief governance might look like in the Australian context. This includes assessing policies, institutional arrangements, and delivery mechanisms to determine whether they promote dignity, sufficiency, and sustainability in food access.
Impact The project aims to inform policy reforms that create a more coordinated, inclusive, and just food relief system, ensuring long-term food security for all Australians.
