It is a comparative case study between the municipality of Ede and the municipality of Ljubljana, carried out in times of COVID-19. This research stemmed from my interest in food systems and urban-rural relations, and my passion for developing better food policies at a regional level. I am in favor of a holistic approach, and that is where urban food policies are often about. It is a relatively new policy field, which asks for investigation, evaluation and comparison between different places. My curiosity about different cultures attract me to the Balkan. Unfortunately, my stay only could last for two weeks. The thesis is part of my master program Organic Agriculture (specialization Sustainable Food Systems) at Wageningen University & Research. I also hope that this report can provide the municipality of Ede and Ljubljana some new interesting insights which they can use in the development of their Urban Food Policy. I want to thank my supervisor Henk Oostindie for the guidance during my research process.
