Food Actions and Strategies Maria Frank Nobody believes that the food system perfectly addresses all needs. Some individuals and groups actively work to turn their dissatisfaction into action with the intent to create systemic change. If people specifically describes their work in terms of activism or the “food movement,” or if they lay out specific, intentional strategies used to influence the food system, they are referring to “Food Actions and Strategies”.
