Theory of Change

Food Education Australia helps people learn how to shop, grow, cook and eat in a way that nourishes well-being and sustains a happy life.

We focus on people from communities experiencing hard times, building their capacity to create food-based solutions, in a way that works best for them.

Our short-term goals focus on increasing awareness of healthy eating habits and improving access to healthy food options through partnerships and social enterprise projects. Capacity building initiatives are also put in place to train community leaders and organisations on how to sustain these efforts.

In the medium-term, Food Education Australia aims to expand its nutrition education programs, increase access to fresh produce, and provide support to those at risk of diet-related diseases. Social enterprise projects are also scaled to create more job opportunities and increase economic opportunities for marginalised communities.

The long-term goal of the organisation is to reduce the incidence of diet-related disease, promoting policy and systemic change to support food education, food security and creating a sustainable model for community-led initiatives through capacity building and empowerment.
