The Food Crisis

Food crisis? What food crisis? Food is a human right that is essential to live a safe and healthy life. In order for people to grow and develop, food must be available, food must be affordable and food must be prepared safely. For most people in Australia and other high income countries, there is plenty of food in homes and on supermarket shelves. However, people living in poverty have limited access to food. Those who live in poverty may not have enough money to buy food or have access to land on which to produce their own food.
