Chapters describe the myriad ways community-driven actors work to foster food systems that are socially just, embed food in local economies, regenerate the environment and actively engage citizens. Drawing on case studies, interviews and Participatory Action Research projects, the editors share the stories behind community-driven efforts to develop sustainable food systems, and present a critical assessment of both the tensions and the achievements of these initiatives. The volume is unique in its focus on approaches and methodologies that both support and recognize the value of community-based practices. Throughout the book the editors identify success stories, challenges and opportunities that link practitioner experience to critical debates in food studies, practice and policy. By making current practices visible to scholars, the volume speaks to people engaged in the co-creation of knowledge, and documents a crucial point in the evolution of a rapidly expanding and dynamic sustainable food systems movement. Entrenched food insecurity, climate change induced crop failures, rural-urban migration, escalating rates of malnutrition related diseases, and aging farm populations are increasingly common obstacles for communities around the world. Merging private, public and civil society spheres, the book gives voice to actors from across the sustainable food system movement including small businesses, not-for-profits, eaters, farmers and government. Insights into the potential for market restructuring, knowledge sharing, planning and bridging civic-political divides come from across Canada, the United States and Mexico, making this a key resource for policy-makers, students, citizens, and practitioners.Social serviceSustainable developmentPublic healthFood—BiotechnologyEconomic developmentFood supplyFood supplyGovernment policySustainable agricultureSocial Work and Community Developmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33080Sustainable Developmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000Public Healthhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27002Food Sciencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C15001Development and Healthhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913060Social service.Sustainable development.Public health.Food—Biotechnology.Economic development.Food supply.Food supplyGovernment policy.Sustainable agriculture.Social Work and Community Development.Sustainable Development.Public Health.Food Science.Development and Health.361.3Knezevic Irenaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBlay-Palmer Alisonedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtLevkoe Charles Z.edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMount Philedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtNelson Erinedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910252692203321Nourishing communities2523099UNINA
