City Region Food Systems
Published by RUAF, May 1st, 2015
The RUAF Urban Agriculture Magazine No 29 (PDF) on City Region Food Systems addresses the growing attention for policy and practice approaches that focus on food issues from a city-regional perspective, taking into account possible contributions from urban and periurban agriculture and strengthening of urban-rural relations. The focus of this issue is on methods for the mapping and assessment of city-region food systems; urban food policies and governance models for city-region food systems; and social and entrepreneurial business models in the context of city-region food systems. It features amongst others articles on research and policy development in partner cities involved in the EC funded SUPURBFOOD programme.
