Issue #661

Food For Thought

In this edition, we’re looking at the big issue of food insecurity: 4 million Australians have gone hungry in the last year, including 1.2 million children. And food banks around the country have been overwhelmed by demand in the face of COVID, natural disasters and the rising costs of living. We speak to people seeking support and ask what needs to be done.
