Our Journey

Food Justice YEG brought people and organizations together through five working groups to achieve the following:

• Designed a staircase of growing success to support an equitable and diverse food environment and ecosystem in YEG.

• Mapping food assets and food resources in Edmonton that support community access to food support and strengthening opportunities for collaboration.

• Mobilized our collective knowledge by creating space for the sharing of stories, experiences, and wisdom from the community to inform our food ecosystem.

• Created pathways for systems change that advocate for food as a human right and advance policy change to support food resilience.

• Developed a sharing and communication platform to facilitate information sharing and collaboration across food stakeholders.
