SUMMARY:Talk: Healthy and sustainable food systems
DESCRIPTION:We have undertaken research into how to simultaneously improve human and planetary health by building alternative community food infrastructures (CFIs) that are socially and environmentally just. This has all been part of the Armidale Climate and Health Project\, supported by funding from UNE. At this free public presentation we will share the results of our research and our plans for the next steps events in the community. \nThe talk will be given by Jen Hamilton and Nikki Larder\, researchers from UNE. \nBackground: \nCFIs are small-scale\, physical and organisational structures and facilities that support the development of healthy and sustainable food systems and communities. They enable access to healthy food for marginalised groups who suffer a disproportionate chronic disease and health burden\, while also supporting the adaptation of the wider agri-food system. Examples include community gardens\, food cooperatives\, food banks\, food relief services\, free or low cost soup kitchens and community dinners\, food co-ops and pay-what-you can restaurants. \nWe are especially interested in collective community meal provision\, and have experimented with different kinds of community meals in Armidale and also researched community meal initiatives across greater Sydney. One of the things we found is that it is very hard for community organisations to find affordable food to provide for the community in need while also sourcing sustainably produced food. This food tends to be more expensive and a luxury item for wealthier people. We are interested in this dilemma and the barriers involved in addressing it\, because both to long term public health and wellbeing and also to climate adaptation.
