Abstract

Agriculture in the urban policies leads the scientific society to question the ability to include sustainable practices for guiding local communities towards shared paths of action and the implementation of spatial planning tools. The connection between places and food defines a geography of development on various scales, considering the transcalarity and comparison of the best practices as useful methodologies of research for supporting the rural issue and the essential rural dimension for local action. The innovative experiments gained at national and international level demonstrate how a PhD project and Third Mission experiences can interact together for defining an overall picture of actions that show phases and actors able to range from the support to urban agriculture. This paper aims at analyzing the cultural debate of reference, the policies in the urban and rural field, at comparing the different actions put in place, and at outlining new opportunities in terms of perspectives for the development of a more sustainable city with inclusive projects too.
