Project description

Under the banner of the CITYFOOD Network, ICLEI Africa has convened an annual campaign platform called #AfricanCITYFOODmonth, within which local governments and urban food system actors can share the activities they are undertaking to improve African urban food systems. The campaign is implemented on Twitter and Instagram, inviting campaign partners, other organisations and private individuals to share their knowledge and activities. Food-related worskhops and webinars are hosted by ICLEI and partners to explore specific themes related to food such as:

  • Urban food production, processing and innovation
  • Improving access and nutritional quality of food
  • Improving food environments
  • Including youth and women in food system activities
  • Novel governance approaches to improve urban food systems
  • Circular food systems
  • Nature, biodiversity and food
  • Food Cultures and identity
