Inferences for Urban Food Planning: Defining City-Region of Food

Ayşegül YARIŞ, Emel Karakaya Ayalp

Urban Farm DB summary

This article reviews the City-Region Food System (CRFS) approach and toolkit developed by FAO and RUAF, translated into Turkish, and examines its roadmap through the West African cities of Ouagadougou and Tamale to assess applicability for building sustainable urban food systems. The review concludes that the CRFS Toolkit offers a limited set of tools and does not incorporate the relationship with spatial disciplines.
