This book conceptualizes community nutrition resilience as a
critical area that is currently lacking the attention it requires
from both the public and private sectors. The book spotlights
Greater Miami's resilience efforts, both responding to slowly
developing challenges such as immigration, environmental
deterioration, and the wealth distribution gap, as well as sudden
disasters such as hurricanes or flooding driven by climate change.
Drawing on existing literature as well as interviews with
professionals working in the field, the author makes
recommendations on how to incorporate food systems into urban
resilience planning, how to prioritize resilience on urban food
agendas, and how to strengthen food system resilience through
public, private, and third sector level engagement. She also
highlights how the availability of and access to nutritious food
impact the health, performance, and well-being of communities in
the region, thus making a strong case for the prioritization of
this growing issue.
