 Local farmers are delivering oranges to the students in Porto Viejo. In Bambilore, women food vendors are preparing fruits and vegetables to sell in the local food market. And food workers, students, and transport companies in Kigali are working together to solve the issue of food waste. These are some of the results of the project Feeding Urbanization, led by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, with cities and local governments of three countries, Ecuador, Rwanda, and Senegal. Through school feeding programs, the project in Porto Viejo focused on nutrition. It provided benefits for local food workers and farmers organizations. The direct purchase of our small producers, integrated in citric production associations, such as oranges, tuna, mandarin, generates direct benefits of a fair price. In a program in combination with FAO, and by articulating with several national entities, both in education and in agriculture, we were able to distribute oranges in a Kigali in Porto Viejo's urban schools for each student at absolutely fair prices. The project also included the development of urban gardens. The municipality approved an ordinance providing a dedicated space for urban farmers to sell their products in the Porto Viejo City Market. These gardens are beneficial to the community. The project also included the development of urban gardens. In the Porto Viejo City Market. The livelihoods of urban and rural populations are now stronger thanks to the project. Starting with the identification of food systems challenges in the cities, local stakeholders were engaged to develop integrated food systems strategies. Focusing on schools and markets, FAO, alongside local governments and organizations, delivered trainings on nutrition and healthy diets in Bambelor, Senegal. Thanks to an innovative governance approach, the project helped to establish agroecology gardens. Their products are now being used for school meals. What we expect from our partners is the impact they will have on the city. The construction of a school building, the learning of teachers and students at school, all these are things that can improve the living conditions of the students at the level of the community in Bambelor, which allows these gardens to be used by the students after they have trained and taught them. I think we need to continue. The question of nutrition with the FAO, with the Urban Food Agenda agenda, is being touched by many municipalities. We need others to be involved. We need the municipalities to be aware of these questions and that they accept it. Most of the people do not accept it. We continue with this logic. The project utilizes the innovative Urban Food Agenda approach, which integrates the three components of analysis, governance and actions to transform urban food systems. FAO facilitated the creation of a task force to solve the issue of food waste in Kigali, Rwanda. Having analyzed the local food system, the task force mobilized governments and local organizations to run informative sessions for food workers and trainings on food waste management for market vendors. Meanwhile, in Ecuador and Senegal, the multi-level food governance model played a crucial role in addressing city-specific challenges, bringing together stakeholders of the local food system. Through the Feeding Urbanization Project, local government and stakeholders are empowered to design and implement food system programs and initiatives according to local priorities and needs. Despite efforts, cities are not yet acknowledged as key players for food systems transformation. Their voices still need to be heard and their roles recognized at national and global level. FAO Urban AgriFood System work is therefore continuing globally, together with many partners, through the establishment of an Urban Food Systems Coalition. The Coalition was established during the 2021 Food Systems Summit and it is working to get cities recognized and empowered in global context to facilitate engagement, coordinated action and the governance between national and local government.
