Three Drivers of Food Inequity Among Indigenous Australians

  1. Geographical remoteness – Many communities are far from affordable fresh food; reliance on expensive processed items.
  2. Poverty and low socioeconomic status – Higher rates of unemployment and lower income limit food budgets.
  3. Cultural and historical disruption – Colonization severed access to traditional lands and food systems; traditional diets are often unavailable or unaffordable.
