AFSA’s Work

Feeding Australia, Fairly

AFSA is a collective of farmers and individuals working together to achieve food sovereignty for all, through socially-just and ecologically sound food and agricultural systems.

To do this, our work covers ground-up movement building across farming, research, legal reform and legal support.

Our aim is for food and agricultural systems to be democratically determined by farmers and eaters, with access to knowledge and resources to feed communities with real food and heal Country.

Take a look at some of our key projects and programs.

The alternatives for transformative change already exist — degrowth, social solidarity economies, and collectivising for action.
