Ex-ante assessment of the “Food” thematic area under the Urban Agenda for the EU
This final report discloses the results and conclusions of the EAA on the Food TA started in January 2023 and provides recommendations for the new Partnership on Food to be launched in the frame of the Urban Agenda for the EU (UAEU).
Food is a global and transverse subject, impacting all of us. It is a crucial topic especially nowadays, in times of crisis and accelerated change. As Hans Bruyninckx from the European Environment Agency said in occasion of the Cities Forum 2023, there is a need for systemic transformation and not only improvement of the existing urban systems (including food systems1 ) towards more just, equitable and resilient ones.
