Food systems shape stability and influence power. Resilience, quality, and trust matter more than raw output; and without secure inputs and coordination, abundance masks fragility and weakens national influence at home and across the region.

Learning Outcomes

  • Recognise food systems as critical infrastructure that affects national resilience and operational readiness.
  • Understand how supply chain disruption can undermine trust, stability, and regional partnerships.
  • Apply whole-of-system thinking when assessing risk across logistics, energy, data, and sustainment.
