To expand knowledge and bring innovative urban agriculture practices into the spotlight, FOODCITYBOOST’s partners, the Institute of plant professionals, ASTREDHOR, and the University of Liege (Centre de Recherches en Agriculture Urbaine) have launched a global survey. FOODCITYBOOST is searching for innovative urban farming practices worldwide to identify the ones that promote sustainable urban agricultural development and deserve to be showcased. To achieve this, we seek the contribution of all urban agriculture stakeholders (farmers, researchers, private experts, policymakers, and other actors involved).
