Strategic direction 2018-2023
Every five years the RUAF Global Partnership reviews its strategy and membership charter. For the period 2018-2023, the RUAF Global Partnership supports and promotes knowledge exchanges between cities and towns on specific issues of sustainable food systems.
The partnership aims to:
- Promote localised systems of production and consumption for more inclusive food systems
- Strengthen the resilience of urban food systems
- Strengthen the role of cities in food policy governance
The pursuit of those three goals is guided by the following principles: the universal right to food; sustainable and resilient cities; and multi-stakeholder engagement.
