integrated urban FOOD policies – developing sustainability Co-benefits, spatial Linkages, social Inclusion and sectoral Connections to transform food systems in city-regions

欧洲的城市地区面临着重大挑战，以确保健康、负担得起、安全和可持续生产的食品的供应和消费。这些挑战集中在当地的食品环境中，但往往被公共规划者忽视。市政当局为改变食物选择结构而采取的有希望的举措往往未能纳入更广泛的政策背景，也未能惠及贫困和弱势群体。造成这一现象的关键因素是：（1）孤立的工作方式;（2）关于粮食系统转型的促进因素和障碍的知识分散。这些因素阻碍了综合城市粮食政策的制定和执行。FOODCLIC将在8个欧洲城市地区（45个城镇）建立强有力的科学-政策-实践界面。这些接口的骨干将由粮食政策网络提供，该网络将管理现实世界的实验性生活实验室，通过行动学习建立与政策相关的证据库。活动将以创新概念框架为依据，该框架强调粮食系统一体化的四个预期成果（可持续性共同效益、空间联系、社会包容和部门联系）。能力建设和对多方利益攸关方（包括贫困和弱势群体）密集参与的直接支持，将使伙伴城市区域的政策行为者和城市规划者能够制定不断演变的综合城市粮食政策，并使规划框架对粮食问题敏感。将通过将新的政策做法推广到欧洲和非洲的另外八个城市地区、一个在线知识中心、一个高级别智囊团和伙伴网络，在其他方面交流和传播成果。通过这些方式，FOODCLIC旨在为城市食品环境做出贡献，使健康和可持续的食品对所有公民（包括贫困和弱势群体）来说都是可获得的、负担得起的和有吸引力的。

Europe’s urban areas face significant challenges to ensure the availability and consumption of healthy, affordable, safe and sustainably produced food. Such challenges converge within local food environments, but are often neglected by public planners. Promising initiatives taken by municipalities to change the architecture of food choice often fail to become embedded in the wider policy context and to reach deprived and vulnerable groups. Key factors responsible for this are: (1) siloed ways of working and (2) fragmentation of knowledge on facilitators and barriers related to food system transformation. These factors hinder the development and implementation of integrated urban food policies. FOODCLIC will create strong science-policy-practice interfaces across eight European city-regions (45 towns and cities). The backbone of such interfaces will be provided by Food Policy Networks, which will manage real-world experimental Living Labs to build a policy-relevant evidence-base through learning-in-action. Activities will be informed by an innovative conceptual framework (the CLIC), which emphasizes four desired outcomes of food system integration (sustainability co-benefits, spatial linkages, social inclusion and sectoral connectivities). Capacity-building and direct support for intensive multi-stakeholder engagement (including deprived and vulnerable groups) will enable policy actors and urban planners across partner city-regions to develop continuously evolving integrated urban food policies and render planning frameworks food-sensitive. Results will be communicated and disseminated amongst others by extending the novel policy practices to another eight city-regions in Europe and Africa, an online Knowledge-Hub, a high level Think Tank and partners’ networks. In these ways, FOODCLIC aims to contribute to urban food environments that make healthy and sustainable food available, affordable and attractive to all citizens (including deprived and vulnerable groups).
