Sub-project 3: Coventry Food Justice Network

www.coventryfoodjustice.uk

Coventry Food Justice emerged from conversations with individuals, groups and agencies in the local community of Coventry who are engaged in tackling the socially and environmentally unsustainable aspects of our food system. The current focus is on the city of Coventry and our aims are to:

  • bring visibility to the community food justice work underway in Coventry
  • link up organisations, agencies, groups and individuals to build a stronger support network
  • generate discussion and action towards a fairer food system through participatory action research and participatory learning

We organized a range of activities and projects including events, food justice walks, a web-space, videos that will help us meet these aims. Longer term plans involve connecting nationally and internationally with the growing food justice movement.
