Just Food Collective is a community of passionate people committed to transforming the food system.
We research systemic inequities, advocate for just solutions and then make change happen!
Right now, our core work revolves around food security, food literacy and food waste elimination.
Our new campaign has just launched this October 2025.
Seeds for a Just Peace

Rebuilding Women Owned Farms in Gaza
Just Food contributed to the Rebuilding Women Farms in Gaza campaign for the Gaza Urban and Peri-urban Agriculture Platform and the Urban Women Agripreneurs Forum. Beyond weekly meetings with stakeholders, Sustain and Global Gardens of Peace, we worked on the campaign communications, sharing the stories of these resilient female agripreneurs.

UN Food Systems Independent Dialogue
We had the opportunity of contributing to the Victorian Independent Food System Dialogue, organised by Sustain, focused on improving food systems across Australia. We joined conversations on the structure of the event, engagement, and inclusivity and gained insight into how collaborative events can be organised to best engage an audience in an online format. In the plenary discussions, we were at once attendees, witnesses, contributors, and facilitators, deepening our understanding of the different actors and their roles in transforming our food system.

Research on student food insecurity
In 2022, Just Food Collective started the Fed Up! campaign to understand the extent of student food insecurity at William Angliss Institute, following the lead of the University of Tasmania and University of Melbourne. This project was unfunded. It was completed due to dire need to understand the problem.
