GCPH Seminar Series 2013-14: Nourishing the City - The Rise of the Urban Food Question: introduction video
Justin Bradley . 25 Jan 2016 16:16

Kevin Morgan, Professor of Governance at Cardiff University delivers this lecture on Urban Food Policy. He looks at the rise of the city as a new player in the food policy debate taking the experiences of London, New York, Toronto and distils some of the lessons learned for cities in UK. He talks about the role of cities in the food system and argues that this is one of the most important topics in the debate on sustainability. He discuses how food has moved from the margins to mainstream of our political agendas, gives a 'cooks tour' of what cities are doing in the global north and south, returns to the UK to discuss the rise of the food movement and talks about new forms of food governance which are still below the radar of mainstream politics. His talk takes in developments in Malmo, Sweden, which aims to reinvent a sustainable, cost effective and affordable school meal system, the joint venture undertaken with Bristol, setting up the first Food Policy Council in the UK, the Brighton model which has a turnover of £1million p/a and a permanent paid staff. He ends his talk on the recent launch of the Sustainable Cities Network which helps cities learn good practice as part of peer-to-peer learning, raises the profile as cities as proper actors in food policy debates, and strengthens the voice of cities in these debates in the UK.
