Urban agriculture for a more sustainable and healthy food system in the Rouen metropolis, France
Résumé
Urban agriculture and gardening in cities is increasingly recognized through initiatives such as the Milan Urban Food Pact (MUFP, 2015). Moreover, there is a growing
awareness on the part of citizens of the significant and positive contribution that a link with nature can make to our mental health and well-being (Capaldi et al., 2015).
Urban agriculture is a form of farming aiming to ensure food security, maintain urban ecosystem services and improve the quality of life (Boukharta et al., 2024a).
The present study focuses on the analysis of two urban agriculture practices in the city of Rouen, France, where an evaluation has been made of the value distribution
created by the implementation of these urban agriculture practices, as well as an assessment of the benefits they bring through economic, social and environmental terms.
This work analyses the governance structures of these initiatives, to identify the feasibility and financing of these urban practices as well as an evaluation of the urban
planning and different indicators, that aim and help to implement these projects
