How can cities transform agrifood systems? This video explores how the Feeding cities (Alimenta Cidades) strategy brings together food security, climate action, biodiversity and social equity through coordinated action across all levels of government and strong engagement with civil society. Through the voices of policymakers, researchers, community leaders and urban farmers, it highlights how coordinated action across sectors is improving access to healthy food, supporting family farming, strengthening communities and addressing food deserts in Brazil's largest cities.
