Food Security, Locally Grown: The Resilient Urban Food Systems Network [PG stage I]
-
- Author(s) / Creator(s)
-
SSHRC Awarded PG-Letter of Intent (stage 1) 2014 and invited to stage 2: Our central objective directly confronts the following question: Can urban agriculture make a substantial contribution to urban food security in a culturally appropriate and ecologically sustainable manner? What would an agri-food system that enhances urban food security and ecological sustainability look like, and what role might urban agriculture play in fostering it?
Where most research ends with Assessment, this will serve as our starting point, followed by Innovation: research-informed strategies for enhancing UA viability; Intervention: putting those strategies into practice; and Dissemination: extensive knowledge sharing and inter-change.
