National School Food Summit
The inaugural National School Food Summit brought together leaders from across Australia to explore the future of food in schools.
Hosted in Tasmania by School Food Matters in collaboration with the Federation of Canteens in Schools, the Summit sparked important conversations around food security, health, wellbeing, education and equity, while highlighting the growing momentum for national collaboration and action.
