It’s concerning to see a national food security strategy being discussed without addressing the pressing issue of hunger in Australia. Food security is not just about ensuring that we have enough food produced; it also involves making sure that everyone has access to that food, particularly the vulnerable populations who are struggling to make ends meet. It’s crucial for any strategy to include comprehensive plans that tackle food accessibility and affordability, as well as initiatives to support those who are facing food insecurity. Engaging with communities, understanding their needs, and providing targeted support should be at the forefront of these discussions. Only then can we ensure that all Australians can lead healthy lives, free from hunger.
