Food insecurity, ‘the inability to acquire or consume an adequate or sufficient quantity of food in socially acceptable ways, or the uncertainty that one will be able to do so (Dowler et al., 2001) is a growing and unevenly distributed problem throughout Europe. Evidence from the UK suggests that food insecurity affects some demographics more than others. For instance, single women or some ethnic minorities are more likely to experience right to food violations than other segments of the population. Yet social differences and discrimination rarely come up in discussions about food insecurity or the right to food in Europe.
