澳門利氏學社將於9月9日18:30至20:00,在聖大會議室舉辦「澳門食物援助計劃概覽」公開論壇。



簡介:

Macao’s GDP per capita ranks among the highest in the world, but the high cost of living can create economic inequality, and poorer residents may struggle to afford necessities, including food. This survey examines the attitudes and policy implications surrounding food insecurity in relation to social welfare programs, community associations, non-governmental organizations, and the private sector. We conducted face-to-face interviews with operators, volunteers, and beneficiaries of various food distribution programs in Macao. While the Macao government subsidizes housing, utilities, healthcare, and transportation, access to food is subject to market forces. The results indicate that food access for low-income households in Macao relies on intricate networking among individuals, interest groups, organizations, and government bodies.
