This is particularly the case in smaller cities, which are often the most rapidly urbanising, but the least able to cope with this growth. This book argues that an examination of the food system and food security provides a valuable lens to interrogate urban poverty. Chapters examine the linkages between poverty, urban food systems and local governance with a focus on case studies from three smaller or secondary cities in Africa: Kisumu (Kenya), Kitwe (Zambia) and Epworth (Zimbabwe).The book makes a wider contribution to debates on urban studies and urban governance in Africa through analysis of the causes and consequences of the paucity of urban-scale data for decision makers, and by presenting potential methodological innovations to address this paucity. As the global development agenda is increasingly focusing on urban issues, most notably the urban goal of the new Sustainable Development Goals and the New Urban Agenda, the work is timely. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in food, society and environment. 606 $aFood security$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan 606 $aFood supply$xGovernment policy$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan 606 $aPoverty$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan 606 $aUrbanization$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan 615 0$aFood security 615 0$aFood supply$xGovernment policy 615 0$aPoverty 615 0$aUrbanization 676 $a338.1967 702 $aBattersby$b Jane 702 $aWatson$b Vanessa 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910282226203321 996 $aUrban Food Systems Governance and Poverty in African Cities - (Open Access)$92218149 997 $aUNINA
