About this Journal
The Urban Food Systems Symposium is a biennial event that brings together a national and international audience of academic and research-oriented professionals to share and gain knowledge on urban food systems and the role they play in global food security. This symposium includes knowledge on: urban agricultural production, local food systems distribution, urban farmer education, urban ag policy, planning and development, food access and justice, and food sovereignty. The Urban Food Systems Symposium Proceedings offer presenters an opportunity to document their research, connect with food systems professionals, and make their findings accessible to a broader audience.
