action plan

Through this project, the world on a food truck, we aim to give a voice to the owners, workers, and supporters of food trucks and provide a platform for them to discuss the issues and challenges they face. In doing so, we hope to show that food trucks are more than just places to get a quick bite; they serve the community in many ways and more broadly, they have not only the mobility, but also the potential to help those suffering in food deserts.
