The Food Bank Report #2 builds on previous research and analyses the structural challenges faced by food banks in Sweden.

The report Food Bank Report #2 – The Journey of Surplus Food: A Complex Path of Conflicting Goals and Interests highlights the complex relationships between the food industry and civil society. It critically investigates how market logics shape the work of charitable organisations and points to the need for systemic change. The report shows that the current model of food redistribution risks reinforcing rather than resolving existing problems. A sustainable future requires not only improved cross-sector collaboration, but also structural changes in how we produce, distribute and consume food. Above all, it demands a holistic analysis that brings power, branding and competing interests into the spotlight.
