We need a Minister for Food. The food insecurity crisis on women

from The Women's Agenda Podcast

Ronni Kahn's energy and passion brings a much needed voice to one of the most significant issues Australia faces: food insecurity, including the mental and physical tolls such insecurity places on women. Through OzHarvest, Kahn's built a team of staff and volunteers who rescue food and repurpose it for those who need it most. But in 2025, during a cost-of-living crisis and housing crisis, OzHarvest is highlighting the more than 50,000 people who get turned away from food services every month and the very real and simple solutions available for us to do something about it. We discuss the new research from OzHarvest out today, as well as how Ronni Kahn remains so dedicated to her purpose so many years after founding OzHarvest, and the serious work still ahead. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
