The UK Food Group (UKFG) is the leading UK network for non-governmental organisations (NGOs) working on global food and agriculture issues. Our vision is a world in which hunger has been banished by food security.

To this end our work seeks to promote sustainable and equitable food security policies; to balance corporate power by providing a public interest perspective to issues affecting global food security; and to strengthen the capacity of civil society to contribute effectively to international consultations on food security.

We represent more than 30 development, farming, consumer and environment organisations, drawn together by a common concern for food security.

In Europe we also represent BOND (British Overseas NGOs for Development) on global food and farming issues, including representation in CONCORD’s European Food Security Group.
