As people increasingly migrate to urban settings and more than half
of the world's population now lives in cities, it is vital to plan
and provide for sustainable and resilient food systems which
reflect this challenge. This volume presents experience and
evidence-based "state of the art" chapters on the key dimensions of
urban food challenges and types of intra- and peri-urban
agriculture. The book provides urban planners, local policy makers
and urban development practitioners with an overview of crucial
aspects of urban food systems based on an up to date review of
research results and practical experiences in both developed and
developing countries. By doing so, the international team of
authors provides a balanced textbook for students of the growing
number of courses on sustainable agriculture, food and urban
studies, as well as a solid basis for well-informed policy making,
planning and implementation regarding the development of
sustainable, resilient and just urban food systems.
