Planning for Future Food Systems: Aligning Efforts with Actions: Public Health Association of BC

The Public Health Association of BC with researchers from Royal Roads University created the Planning for Future Food Systems: Aligning Efforts with Actions project, including innovative tools to support food system actors in embedding social justice and decolonial principles into their work. These tools are intended to enhance the collective capacity of individuals, organizations, and communities to create a more just, equitable, and inclusive food system.

Food system actors, such as local and provincial governments, non-profit organizations, food policy councils and networks, school food programs, food producers, among others, can apply these tools to support their work.
