COST Association
Avenue Louise 149
1050 Brussels

In the last 4 years the COST Action has elaborated a European approach on the phenomenon of Urban Agriculture. The main findings and important policy recommendations are now published in the book Urban Agriculture Europe.

You are kindly invited to participate the Actions's final event. The book will be presented in detail with particular regard to European policies: How can Urban Agriculture support the Europe 2020 strategy? Which policies - from the CAP to Research and Innovation policies, from Environmental to Social and Territorial policies - can benefit from Urban Agriculture? How can these policies help to unfold the potentials of Urban Agriculture?

Beside presentations you are invited to take part in a World Cafe to jointly explore the potentials of Urban Agriculture for the different policies of the European Community.

The meeting is co-organized by the University of Gent and by ILVO (Institute for Agricultural and Fisheries Research).
