In Good Health

Walking the tightrope


Listen Later

We've talked a lot about ways that food can help us lead healthier, happier lives but we've assumed that some food - healthy food - is within all of our reach. But what if it's not? Dr Sandro talks with Monash University researcher Dr Sue Kleve about food and inequality and the "tightrope" that some low and middle income households walk between hunger and security. Meanwhile, Dewi visits two organisations working to alleviate food insecurity in Australia, Foodbank and The Community Grocer.
