Empowering Consumers

In response to perceived food system problems, some activists seek market based solutions by working to change trends in consumer demand. Often, these strategies emphasize a widespread deficit of consumer knowledge about the global corporate supply chain. Others aim to spread the practice of do-it-yourself food production, preservation, or preparation. In general, if a strategy targets systemic changes in consumer behavior, it typically begins by empowering consumers by building their knowledge about the food system.
