Time & Location

Online Forum
About the Event
This online forum explores how urban agriculture spaces are governed, shared, and negotiated, and how questions of power, equity, and participation shape urban food systems. Bringing together students, researchers, practitioners, and community members, the forum focuses on governance not only as policy, but as a lived and relational process.
Topic of Discussion
- Governance models in urban agriculture (municipal, cooperative, grassroots, hybrid)
- Power relations, inclusion, and exclusion in urban food spaces
- Who owns, manages, and benefits from urban agriculture — and who is left out
- Rights, responsibilities, and care in shared urban food spaces
- And more!
Who Should Attend?
This forum is ideal for:
- Students interested in urban studies, planning, governance, food systems, and social justice
- Researchers and professionals working on urban agriculture, policy, and community development
- Practitioners, activists, and community members engaged in local food initiatives
- Anyone interested in equity, participation, and collective decision-making in cities
Don’t Miss Out!
