Food Secure Canada is pleased to announce its upcoming event Convening 2024: Toward Just & Affordable Food Systems taking place November 11-13, 2024 in Tiohtià:ke (Montreal, QC). As food insecurity spirals ever upwards, and patterns of hunger reflect Canada’s ongoing colonialism and structural racism, Convening 2024 is an opportunity to engage in a coast-to-coast-to-coast conversation about food justice and affordability, together with hundreds of people involved in Canadian food and justice movement(s).
The theme of the convening - ‘Toward Just & Affordable Food Systems’ - will be explored through a food systems lens, enabling multiple entry points to understanding critical challenges and (w)holistic ways forward, including:
- Guaranteeing livable incomes for all, including through Reparations
- Supporting Indigenous foodways, including through Land Back
- Reigning in and redirecting corporate food retail profits
- Strengthening non-corporate and justice oriented food retail including coops, solidarity grocers, farmers markets, community-supported agriculture and more.
We are in the process of applying for funding and looking for sponsors to help folks looking for financial support to attend the convening. If you are someone looking for further support to attend the convening, please email [email protected].
