Urban agriculture plays a significant role in the global food supply, accounting for 20% of the total. These social-ecological systems are shaped by both human and non-human interactions, and this book aims to explore how urban agroecologists measure flora and fauna that underpin these systems, as well as how people manage and benefit from them. It also delves into how the sociopolitical landscape in which these systems are embedded can shape the social, ecological, political, and economic dynamics within them.
The book synthesizes interdisciplinary approaches in urban agroecology from the natural and social sciences, providing valuable insights for scholars and practitioners alike. It explores methodologies and new directions in research that can contribute to the development of urban agroecology.
Contributions from researchers utilizing both social and natural science approaches are featured in the book, which aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of urban agroecology. It explores the role of agroecology in cities and calls for the creation of spaces for sustainable food growth in urban spaces, fostering the growth of the Urban Agriculture (UA) movement.
This book is essential reading for graduate students, practitioners, policy makers, and researchers interested in advancing the field of urban agroecology. It charts the course for accelerating the movement and promoting sustainable food systems in urban environments.
