OUR CAMPAIGN
OUR DEMANDS, CAMPAIGN STRATEGY and HOW YOU CAN GET INVOLVED
As we enter the climate crisis, Mother's Manifesto calls for those in power to meet their legal responsibility by providing the required resources and environmental protection that ensure the human right to adequate food. We demand accountability for public and private bodies to safeguard every human - with a focus on women and children as the disproportionate victims of current and ongoing food poverty.

OUR DEMANDS
MAKE SURE ALL CHILDREN IN THE UK HAVE ENOUGH TO EAT
Provide nutritious free school meals for all children in state schools: this has been evidenced to show the best short and long term outcomes for children and to be cost effective.
An Essentials Guarantee for Universal Credit: so that families can afford the basic necessities, and not only survive but thrive.
IMPLEMENT GLOBAL POLICIES OF CARE
Keeping our promises on aid: reverse the cuts to the aid budget and ring fence this for the financially poorest and most climate vulnerable nations. Supporting projects that are most impactful, whilst respecting local autonomy.
Cancel debt to enable climate adaptation: as one of the countries currently and historically most responsible for climate breakdown to cancel the crippling debt owed by the financially poorest nations.
Apply sanctions where food is weaponized: this is against international law, yet famine and conflict are often linked and restriction of food often used as a tool of war.
INVEST IN SUSTAINABLE FOOD SYSTEMS
Create a National Land Use Framework: that recognises our interdependence on nature, global food limitations and a fair and just food system.
Support farmers and growers through this transition
