U.S. Working Group on the Food Crisis Unites Diverse Groups Around a Campaign to Build a Just and Sustainable Food System

Every person can fight the food system and reach these goals:

  • Stabilize prices for farmers and consumers globally.
  • Rebalance power in the food system.
  • Make sustainable agriculture the standard
  • Guarantee the right to healthy food by building local and regional food systems and fostering social, ecological and economic justice.

You can take action in many ways!

  1. Contact your elected officials to demand policies that support a fair food system.
  2. Write op-eds and letters to the editor of your newspaper.
  3. Host an event to educate and mobilize your community.
  4. Join local or government organizations working for a fair food system.
  5. Get involved with the US Working Group on the Food Crisis.

You can make the food industry a better place for everyone, but especially for YOU, the consumer.
