Growing Food and Justice for All Initiative (GFJI) is a new initiative aimed at dismantling racism and empowering low-income and communities of color through sustainable and local agriculture.
This comprehensive network views dismantling racism as a core principal which brings together social change agents from diverse sectors working to bring about new, healthy and sustainable food systems and supporting and building multicultural leadership in impoverished communities throughout the world.
The vision for this initiative is to establish a powerful network of individuals, organizations and community based entities all working toward a food secure and just world.
