Food in an urbanised world report draft february 2015 png

This report seeks to provide a synthesis of the current state of knowledge on City Region Food Systems. Its primary objective is to explore the concepts and evidence behind city region food systems and analyse the proposed benefits of pursuing a city regional approach to food policy and planning. The paper also seeks to provide a limited number of recommended actions that would help stakeholders ensure improvements to food systems outcomes at a city-region level and that would help advance food policy and planning at this level as a means of implementing a more integrated approach to rural urban development.
