When thinking about farming, most people imagine rural areas with large, open fields with bright green crops whose growth is powered by the sun. However, with growing cities expected to consume 80% of all food, it will be necessary to complement that image with urban farming: Food from the city, for the city.
“Promoting Sustainable Urban & Peri-urban Agriculture for healthy, sustainable, and nutritious diets in Kampala” is a collaboration between Rikolto, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) that envisions a future proof Kampala where small spaces can be used for urban farming.
