A Future for Food

Hello All,

Please see below some info. cut from the Public Health Ass. of Australia website:

The Public Health Association of Australia is calling for an overhaul in the way we approach food policy in this country.

The Public Health Association (PHAA) in association with its members, and informed by the PHAA Nutrition Round Table, has developed A Future for Food - an initiative calling on government, professionals and industry to work together to establish a national integrated food policy to enable the national to meaningfully address the issues of public health, sustainability and equity when it comes to our food supply.

There are some presentations which can be found at www.phaa.net.au/futureRoundtable.php which are just powerpoint slides, but have some interesting stats. Also, you can register your support for the PHAA call to establish a food policy in Australia that genuinely addresses the key issues of public health, sustainability and equity and recieve updates on their progress.

Regards, Karen.
