Book Description
Les Directives sur le droit à l’alimentation fournissent des orientations pratiques sur la façon de mettre en œuvre le droit à une alimentation adéquate dans un large éventail de domaines politiques et programmatiques, à l’aide d’une approche fondée sur les droits de l’homme. Depuis l’adoption des Directives sur le droit à l’alimentation, la FAO et ses partenaires ont créé une multitude d’outils, renforcé les capacités en la matière et animé des dialogues multipartites dans le monde entier. L’objectif de concrétisation du droit à l’alimentation pour tous est cependant encore loin d’être atteint – plus de 820 millions de personnes souffrent encore aujourd’hui de faim chronique. Cette rétrospective de quinze ans sur les Directives sur le droit à l’alimentation nous permet de comprendre ce qui a fonctionné dans le passé et pourquoi, où se situent les goulots d’étranglement et comment optimiser les actions des gouvernements et de leurs partenaires dans le cadre de la lutte contre la faim et la malnutrition.

Book Description
With over half the world's population now deemed to be urbanised, cities are assuming a larger role in political debates about the security and sustainability of the global food system. Hence, planning for sustainable food production and consumption is becoming an increasingly important issue for planners, policymakers, designers, farmers, suppliers, activists, business and scientists alike. The rapid growth of the food planning movement owes much to the fact that food, because of its unique, multi-functional character, helps to bring people together from all walks of life. In the wider contexts of global climate change, resource depletion, a burgeoning world population, competing food production systems and diet-related public health concerns, new paradigms for urban and regional planning capable of supporting sustainable and equitable food systems are urgently needed. This book addresses this urgent need. By working at a range of scales and with a variety of practical and theoretical models, this book reviews and elaborates definitions of sustainable food systems, and begins to define ways of achieving them. To this end 4 different themes have been defined as entry-points into the discussion of 'sustainable food planning'. These are (1) urban agriculture, (2) integrating health, environment and society, (3) food in urban design and planning and (4) urban food governance.

Book Description
This comprehensive overview of local food systems explores alternative definitions of local food, estimates market size and reach, describes the characteristics of local consumers and producers, and examines early indications of the economic and health impacts of local food systems. Defining ¿local¿ based on marketing arrangements, such as farmers selling directly to consumers at regional farmers¿ markets or to schools, is well recognized. Statistics suggest that local food markets account for a small, but growing, share of U.S. agricultural production. For smaller farms, direct marketing to consumers accounts for a higher percentage of their sales than for larger farms. Charts and tables.
