European Forum on Urban Agriculture Action Conference

Description

I have been invited to present an impulse speech about future developments for Urban Agriculture as part of the launch of the European Forum on Urban Agriculture’s (EFUA) Urban Agriculture Manifesto.
The EFUA is a 4-year project funded under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme. The project is running from 2020-2024. EFUA’s objectives are to unlock Urban Agriculture’s potential through achieving better networking, better knowledge, better deployment and better policies in the field. Through establishing an Urban Agriculture (UA) Forum, it aims to develop new levels of stakeholder engagement to inform decision making and to mainstream Urban Agriculture into European, regional and local policy. EFUA’s workflow is organized around “quad helix” principles, culminating in public conferences and the co-design of an UA vision.
My invitation is related to my and Katrin Bohn’s research into the integration of urban agriculture into cities and Katrin’s role on the EFUA’s board of innovation.
