ARACY’s submission to the National Food Security Strategy highlights food security as a systems challenge requiring a whole-of-government and whole-of-community response.
Drawing on insights from the Young and Wise Nutrition Roundtable, it amplifies young people’s solutions – including:
- affordable healthy food,
- stigma-free universal school meals,
- clearer labelling,
- and hands-on food skills education.
The submission calls for embedding youth agency, prioritising equity, and ensuring climate-resilient food systems to improve long-term outcomes in health, education, and wellbeing.
