Brief me
The EcoFoodSystems project aims to enhance the health and climate resilience of urban and peri-urban food systems by adopting a systems-based approach for agroecological transitions. The project’s specific objectives are twofold:
-
To develop a systems and evidence-based approach for prioritizing and targeting agroecological intensification interventions and innovations at the landscape, value chain, community and farm scale. The approach should enable socially inclusive food system and nutrition transformations.
-
To co-create scaling strategies with relevant stakeholders for agroecological innovations that promote sustainability, nutritional security, and climate resilience in each country. These strategies should facilitate city-regional food systems transitions
