Descripción
The current global crisis and the acknowledgement that, in coming decades, the world population will be predominantly urban, brings about new necessities and demands for innovative approaches to food systems? planning. The need urges to identify the most efficient and consistent ways to deal with problems concerning economic and energetic efficiency, environmental quality, food security, job creation and urban development. In the past few years, according to the international political and scientific agendas, strategies for food security in metropolitan areas, both in and out of Europe, highlight the need to re-localize production-consumption systems through more efficient shorter supply chains, as a mean to promote sustainable urban development via place-based approaches. The provision of efficient responses to environmental, economic and social concerns, emerging in a context of complex global change, needs to be tackled at a local and regional level. In order to do so, it is imperative to identify land-use management and strategic planning guidelines able to promote the re-localization of the Lisbon Metropolitan Area (LMA?s) food system and its components in a sustainable way.
