GROW campaign for food justice

Posted on June 13, 2011 by qldoxfam

The global food system is broken – but together we can fix it.

Soon there will be nine billion of us on the planet. Already, almost a billion of us go to bed hungry every night. Not because there isn’t enough. But because of the deep injustice in the way the system works. And because too many of the ways we grow today are using up and destroying the natural resources on which we all rely.

We can grow in a better way – one that contributes much more to human wellbeing, and ensures that everyone on the planet will always have enough to eat.

Get involved inOxfam’s new GROW campaign for food justice, and help to make a world where everyone has enough to eat, now and in the future.
