Safe food Campaign Constitution
The Safe Food Campaign NZ is an incorporated society, and is a nationwide organisation which campaigns for safer, healthier food.
We provide consumers with information so that they can make up their own minds about what is safe to eat. We lobby government to make our food safer.
​
The Safe Food Campaign is a voluntary organisation that relies on donations and membership subscriptions for its work. Your financial support is always appreciated, allowing us to disseminate information about safe food.
Here is an extract from our constitution, updated November 2025. You can also download the constitution in full.
The objectives of the Society are:
​
-
To promote safe, healthy whole food that comes from organic regenerative agriculture, especially locally, and educate consumers about its advantages, including the mitigation of climate change and protection of animals and the environment.
-
To educate consumers about what is in the food we eat, including harmful pesticides, contaminants, additives and genetic engineering.
-
To encourage greater access to organic food for everyone.
-
To draw attention to the vulnerability of infants and children in various stages of development as they consume more contaminants by bodyweight.
-
To draw attention to independent scientific evidence, paying particular attention to the adverse cumulative and cocktail effects of pesticides, additives and contaminants in our diets over time.
-
To advocate for legislation which protects consumers from food and drink with harmful substances.
-
To cooperate with similar organisations to improve the quality and safety of our diet in New Zealand.
-
To promote policy measures that are protective of the long-term health of food growers, workers and producers, acknowledging the connection between healthy people, healthy food and healthy soil.
-
To draw attention to the damage and destruction of our natural living world, or ecocide, that results from systems of food production detrimental to people and the environment.
