低收入和中等收入国家的城市化既带来了机遇，也带来了巨大的挑战。随着城市中心的迅速发展，住房不足以及基本基础设施和服务的缺乏影响着大量且不断增长的人口。还有越来越多的证据表明城市贫困及其与环境危害的联系。然而，对于这些挑战如何影响贫困城市居民获取食物和确保健康营养饮食的方式，人们知之甚少。除一些重要的例外外，当前关于粮食安全的讨论仍然集中在生产上，而对消费的关注有限。此外，城市消费者通常被视为同质群体，并且认为进入食品市场就足够了。本文描述了对于低收入和中等收入国家的城市贫困人口来说，食物的承受能力和利用是如何受到包括城市空间在内的贫困的收入和非收入维度的影响的。
Urbanisation in low and middle-income nations presents both opportunities and immense challenges. As urban centres grow rapidly, inadequate housing and the lack of basic infrastructure and services affect a large and growing proportion of their population. There is also a growing body of evidence on urban poverty and its links with environmental hazards. There is, however, limited knowledge of how these challenges affect the ways in which poor urban residents gain access to food and secure healthy and nutritious diets. With some important exceptions, current discussions on food security continue to focus on production, with limited attention to consumption. Moreover, urban consumers are typically treated as a homogenous group and access to food markets is assumed to be sufficient. This paper describes how, for the urban poor in low and middle-income countries, food affordability and utilisation are shaped by the income and non-income dimensions of poverty that include the urban space.
