Initially seen as an emergency measure, corporate-backed food aid programs are now entrenched 'solutions' to hunger. But who really benefits from them? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKayleigh Garthwaite travelled across Britain, North America and Europe, working with food banks, co-ops, urban farms and food justice organisations. She documents the limitations of these programs, and how institutionalising charitable food aid absolves governments of their responsibility to ensure that people have a right to food. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs hunger and inequality continue to rise within advanced capitalist countries, this issue is more urgent than ever. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKayleigh Garthwaite proposes radical key policies for governments and explores alternative community-led responses grounded in solidarity, not charity, to end the need for food aid before the indignity of food banks becomes completely normalised.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthors:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kayleigh Garthwaite, Kerry Hudson\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 192\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780745350172\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20260213\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43540474789949,"sku":"9780745350172","price":31.46,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/7689\/2989\/files\/9780745350172.jpg?v=1788296730","url":"https:\/\/www.palmleaf.com.au\/products\/hunger-inc-building-solidarity-beyond-the-food-bank","provider":"Palmleaf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
