Food Policy Action Coalition and interagency collaboration scheme - Baltimore

"Baltimore´s Food Policy and Planning Division oversees Baltimore´s Food Policy Initiative. Understanding that food does not fit solely into one government agency, the city of Baltimore takes an interagency approach to sustainable food systems. With each agency lending its expertise, the City creates food access strategies and implements programs and policies with multi-sector support. The Food Policy Initiative webpage includes an overview of the role of different agencies in sustainable food systems.


In addition, Baltimore´s Food Policy Action Coalition gathers 60 members, representing nonprofits, universities, farms, businesses, hospitals, and residents. Meetings are held bimonthly and allow members to share updates, learn from presentations, and converse in breakout sessions so they are better equipped for their food systems work. All resources used to facilitate these meetings and publicly available on the Food Policy Action Coalition resource folder."
