Food advocacy is the effort to promote healthy, sustainable, and equitable food systems. Advocates work to raise awareness about issues like food insecurity, nutrition, and the environmental impact of food production. They aim to influence policies and practices that affect how food is grown, distributed, and consumed. Organizations and individuals involved in food advocacy often collaborate with communities, governments, and businesses. They may focus on initiatives such as improving access to fresh produce, supporting local farmers, or reducing food waste. Notable figures in this field include Michael Pollan and Alice Waters, who emphasize the importance of mindful eating and sustainable agriculture.
