The value of agroecology in promoting sustainable urban food systems
KULTUR-REVISTA INTERDISCIPLINARIA SOBRE LA CULTURA DE LA CIUTAT(2023)
Abstract
Providing food is one of the main objectives to consider in any economic, urban and social development plan. Conventional food systems con-tribute to extreme weather events, land degradation and biodiversity loss. Mee-ting these challenges calls for a sustainable approach that ensures sufficient food to meet nutritional and welfare standards without compromising the economic, social and environmental foundations for future generations. This paper explo-res the implications of food systems and the value of agroecology in the design of ruralisation scenarios in urban areas to provide safe and nutritious food sus-tainably.The way urban land is used should help to build landscapes aimed at healing, connecting and enhancing relationships between local actors and nature. Plan-ning of peri-urban areas can involve the development of recreational agroe-cology, combining nature, sustainable production, landscape conservation, recreation, cultural heritage preservation and eco-educational services. Urban land use through innovative pro-environmental solutions can support the green resilience system, eco-orienting land uses to urban ecosystems, as well as hel-ping to improve quality of life in the city.
