The Greenbelt Fund has released Volume 7 of its Green Papers series called “People: Effecting Change”
Public institutions are large, often complex organizations that face many challenges to implementing and sustaining changes to procurement. In many cases, getting more local food into them is less about finding Ontario food options and more about getting staff involved in a way that will be impacted by directives to source Ontario food. Before this can happen, clear objectives that are communicated through strong leadership is vital.
The series highlights some of the more specific challenges in local food provision and steps needed to overcome them.
