Eating Better

For our final case study, we spotlight Nourish Scotland and examine how embracing dignity and justice, through co-creation and amplifying marginalised voices in decision-making, can transform food systems.

For years, the Landworkers Alliance has been organising identity-based groups to embed inclusivity and intersectionality in farming and landwork. The case study below highlights the impact these groups have had on members and how they have shaped the organisation's broader efforts in diversity, equity, inclusion, and anti-racism.

In our commitment to fostering justice within the sustainable food sector, we’re turning to the inspiring work of our alliance members who are pioneering initiatives to create systemic change. Among these efforts, the REDI for Change Toolkit stands out as a groundbreaking resource, supporting organisations across the UK in dismantling oppression within food systems. In this blog, Ben Messer walks us through the purpose and transformative impact of integrating REDI for Change into the Sustainable Food Places programme, paving the way for a more inclusive and equitable food future.

A just, diverse, equitable and inclusive (JEDI) food system is something which all Eating Better members aspire to see. But until we put these principles into practice in our own organisations we will not see the food system change.
