Food Communities Network

• You must be involved with a group/organization/institution (formal or informal) that works on food issues at a community-wide level (within Indigenous, rural, urban and/or remote communities), including:
  • Food policy groups (FPGs)* working at local levels (informal or formal)
  • Leadership and staff within Indigenous and settler governance tables 
  • Public Health workers
  • Community-wide, non-profit, social purpose groups working on broader food system and/or governance issues.
• You have community engagement, volunteer and/or professional experience working on components of food systems resiliency at a community/regional level.
• You work with the understanding that some of the most important food solutions come from the local level. 
• This network is the sum of its members. By joining, you choose to:
  • Engage in FCN-RCN activities as possible
  • Share your knowledge and/or information from your group with the network, and from the network back to your community.

*If you are an individual who is not currently involved with a local organization, we encourage you to:

• Connect with your local Food Policy Group or another local organization in your area, or to start one (and we can assist with that).
• Sign up as an Associate Member in order to get a direct copy of the newsletter to your inbox, with opportunities to partner on relevant projects.  (Associate members include individual academics, provincial level networks/groups, individuals, etc.)
