Transforming the Public Plate - leveraging food system change through publicly funded food purchasing
Description
We would love you to join us for the first Good Food Purchasing Australia webinar. Team members will be sharing key insights from the Transforming the Plate report which contains a menu of options for how we use government funded food purchasing in institutions and programs to leverage food system change - for health/equity, reducing food systems climate emissions, supporting SME's and First Nations businesses to participate in procurement systems and contributing positively to the livelihoods of farmers, producers and processors. Currently Australia is a laggard in public food procurement (PFP).
Hear about:
how big the PFP opportunity is and why it's so important to act.
what some of the current challenges are in Australia.
what the evidence and international experience says are good pathways to action that could be adapted here in Australia.
how PFP can build resilience in our food system.
the newly established Good Food Purchasing Australia initiative and its key activities.
There will be a Q & A and plenty of time for questions.
This webinar is for policy makers, people who participate in the food systems from farmers to eaters, practitioners, advocates and people ready to lead and/or collaborate for change.
Please join us and share about the webinar with your colleagues who may have an interest. See you there.
The GFPA Team.
