This book uses mixed methods to extend the concept of "wellbeing
stocks" to refer to dynamic ways of working with others. It
addresses metaphors and praxis for weaving together strands of
experience. The aim of the wellbeing stocks concept is to enable
people to re-evaluate economics and to become more aware of the way
in which we neglect social and environmental aspects of life. The
pursuit of profit at the expense of people and the environment is a
central problem for democracy and governance. The vulnerability of
cities is a symptom of the lack of balance between individual and
collective needs. This book explores the potential for cities,
specifically in the regions of Indonesia, Africa, and Australia, to
become more productive as sites for food and water security through
more creative use of technology. It highlights the need for
partners that see food and security feasible at the household level
if supports are provided at the community, national and
international level. The book examines how these regions are
affected by demographics, climate change and people movements, but
also explores ways to establish an effective cultural ecosystem
management.
