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 Work

Food should be free, which is why Just Food Collective is working with the City of Melbourne and William Angliss Institute to make sure it is.

Funded by VicHealth, our latest project is looking for young culturally and linguistically diverse participants.

We are currently raising money so we can feed 10,000+ hungry students.

Please donate if you can!

Previous Projects

  • 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. Learn more about the campaign here.

  • Oakhill Food Justice Farm

    Our members were actively involved as working bees on the early days of Sustain’s Oakhill Food Justice Farm. We are now frequent visitors and partners, and grateful to host our workshops on this inspiring urban farm.

  • 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.
