September 9 @ 08:00 - September 11 @ 17:00
UN-Habitat (PLGS) participated in the Urban Agrifood Systems Global Workshop, Mobilizing stakeholders towards a shared vision and collective impact, 9-11 September 2024 in Rome, Italy.
UN-Habitat shared over a decade of efforts in integrating food systems into urban and territorial policy, focusing on the role of local and subnational governments in addressing economic, environmental, and social challenges. Key strategies include enhancing multi-level cooperation, strengthening urban-rural linkages, and promoting sustainable food systems through policies and tools such as protecting land for smallholder production and using public procurement to support healthy food.
