The access to adequate, safe, sustainable and nutritious food is a fundamental human right. However, this right is still not guaranteed in the European Union. The European Citizens’ Initiative (ECI) for the Right to Food, promoted by the European movement GOOD FOOD FOR ALL, seeks to change this reality and place this right at the centre of European public policies.
Supporting this initiative means standing against food insecurity, denouncing unfair food systems, and defending a model that cares for people, for those who produce our food, and for the planet.
Why is it urgent to guarantee the right to food?
Across Europe, millions of people experience food insecurity and cannot afford a healthy diet. At the same time:
- Farmers and food system workers do not receive fair incomes.
- Sustainability is undermined by a lack of political will and adequate resources.
- Large food chain actors accumulate profits by promoting unhealthy diets and speculative practices.
- The network of small producers—essential for ecological transition—is sidelined and unprotected.
The ECI calls on the EU to adopt policies that promote agroecological food systems, ensure universal access to sufficient and nutritious food, and protect those who produce it.
Our objectives
- Raise awareness about food insecurity and expose unsustainable food systems in Europe.
- Advocate for strong European frameworks that guarantee the right to food.
- Mobilise citizens to defend this basic and universal human right.
