In recent years the government has invested in creating safer and more livable favelas. This generally starts with creating a UPP, a police post at a central location, from where the safety is maintained. Once this has been established the PAC, the government organisation for accelerating urban development in the favelas, starts to make plans to improve the quality of life in the favela: drinking water, electricity, sewage system and other basic systems. It is essential to include the growth of food in their policies. Secondly, the discourse in urban agriculture shifts from the early stage in which every initiative is interesting, food production is a social activity and an estimated contribution to sustainability, towards the question how much food is actually produced within the city boundaries. Analyses show that the amount produced is very little. The follow-up question is how more food could be produced in the city? This is obviously also a matter of space. Current urban concepts do not offer enough space for food production and this implies new concepts need to be found. In the context of the favelas these new spaces need to be found on roofs.Regional planningCity planningAgricultureSociology, UrbanFood—BiotechnologyEconomic developmentLandscape/Regional and Urban Planninghttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000Agriculturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006Urban Studies/Sociologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22250Food Sciencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C15001Development Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913000Regional planning.City planning.Agriculture.Sociology, Urban.Food—Biotechnology.Economic development.Landscape/Regional and Urban Planning.Agriculture.Urban Studies/Sociology.Food Science.Development Studies.630.91732Roggema Robedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910254006603321Food Roofs of Rio de Janeiro2530904UNINA
