As long as access to food is not egalitarian, inclusive and free, social and health consequences injustices will remain. To move forward with this objective of transforming food systems that take into account their impacts on the climate, one approach is to use the experience of the social protection model in France as a basis, namely the general social security system, drawn up in 1945. With this model, we can think of sustainable food social security with universal and egalitarian access to food that is reconnected to the conditions of its production. Food democracy, understood as a concept and method of collective action, gives us the framework to think jointly of social democracy and economic democracy, without allowing the economy to dominate the social question. It is a question of regaining control of the food system(s) by all the inhabitants of France and of being in the conditions to do so.
