    PATHWAY 01

    Civic-led delivery, civic resilience and preparedness

    Procurement protocols and buying coalitions don’t feed anyone on their own. Grocers, dinners, workshops and community-run hubs are the layer that turn food into fresh meals someone can buy or receive.

    PATHWAY 02

    Coordinated, collective buying power of organic, resilient supply

    No single borough’s contract is big enough to move a farmer’s decision. A buying coalition of London boroughs and businesses is — turning committed public and commercial demand into the confidence a grower needs to convert land.

    PATHWAY 03

    New Food Economics

    New economics of food through policy, economic, accounting, financing, and monetary instruments. Sounds complex — plenty of best practice to learn from.

    PATHWAY 04

    Nutrient density is the target, not calories

    The baseline shifts from “enough food” to genuinely nourishing food — because a system that only solves for calories quietly manufactures the next public-health crisis while claiming to have solved the last one.
