Urban Farm DB summary

A qualitative intrinsic case study of Florianópolis, Brazil, examines the processes of social innovation generated by urban agriculture practices, using a pragmatist perspective and the analytical framework of ethnography of public arenas. Through a mapping of the city's urban agriculture practices, the study identifies three dynamics of social innovation situated in three distinct public arenas: solid organic waste, the human right to adequate food, and production-consumption cycles. These findings are presented as contributing to understanding the complexity of social innovation processes and their implications for governance in the city.
