Open Food Network Australia, in partnership with Sustainable Table and funded by the Citi Foundation Global Innovation Challenge, invites you to learn about our new pilot project to increase financial access to food for food-insecure households. We will be joined by four key speakers within the community food enterprise space that have implemented food voucher projects in their respective communities, including an overseas project from the UK.

Our key speakers are:

Ronella Gomez - Merribek FLAG (Australia)
Sara Rock - Tamar Food Hub (UK)
Georgia Savage - The Community Grocer (Australia)
Lynda Hoare - Baw Baw Food Hub (Australia)

Attendees will leave this webinar with an in-depth understanding of Open Food Network's Food Subsidy Pilot Project and our vision for the Project going forward as well as increased expertise in a range of food voucher opportunities and operating models. We will then hear from key speakers about:

Lessons learned from existing food voucher projects
Strategies, operations and processes designed through their food voucher projects
Answer questions from the audience

This webinar offers a unique opportunity for community food enterprises, policymakers, and food security advocates to engage in knowledge sharing and collaborative learning.
