  • Lusaka, Zambia FAO - Food for the Cities Programme
    CITY REGION FOOD SYSTEM SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS Lusaka, Zambia FAO - Food for the Cities Programme - WORKING DOCUMENT - Prepared by, at the University of Zambia, Godfrey Hampwaye, Mebelo Mataa, Gilbert Siame, and Olipa Lungu in consultation with FAO, 2016 ABOUT THIS REPORT City region food systems (CRFS) encompass the complex network of actors, processes and relationships involved in food production, processing, marketing and consumption in a given geographical region. The CRFS approach advocates for strengthened connectivity between urban centres and surrounding areas –whether peri-urban or rural– for a fair rural development and well- managed urbanisation. At the same time, it fosters the development of resilient and sustainable food systems, smallholder agriculture, sustainable rural and urban production, employment, improved livelihoods, and food and nutrition security for all. The Food for the Cities Programme aims at building more resilient and sustainable food systems within city regions by strengthening rural-urban linkages. The programme builds on the demand to better understand and operationalize the concept of city region food systems. It analyzes and assesses CRFS. The results will serve as a basis for further planning and informed decision-making, prioritizing investments and designing food policies and strategies, which aim at improving the resilience and sustainability of the entire food system, through a continuous participatory multi- stakeholder dialogue. In collaboration with the RUAF Foundation, projects are carried out in eight city regions: Colombo (Sri Lanka), Dakar (Senegal), Kitwe and Lusaka (Zambia), Medellin (Colombia), Quito (Ecuador), Toronto (Canada) and Utrecht (the Netherlands). This report describes the first phase of the city region food system (CRFS) assessment.
