This report shares key lessons on how to empower local action on food poverty learnt through the Food Power programme which was delivered between 2017 – 2021.
Food Power supported food poverty alliances up and down the UK to tackle the root causes of food poverty. Through their work, Sustain has developed 10 key lessons on how to empower local action on food poverty and deliver dignified, sustainable responses to food poverty. This report outlines these key lessons alongside recommendations for national governments and funders to help remove structural barriers.
If you’re interested in taking action to tackle food poverty in your area or want to campaign nationally, this report is a great place to start.
