Urban Agriculture Casablanca
Urban Agriculture, Its Conceptualization, and the Importance of Action Research
This paper deals with three main issues in the context of urban agriculture: first, the conceptualization of urban agriculture as an urban development strategy by using the possible positive synergies created through an interweaving of urban and rural spheres, second, the opportunity to improve the living conditions and qualities of life of urban inhabitants in terms of social development and income creation based on urban agricultural activity, and third, the importance of the action research approach in finding answers to the question of how can urban agriculture contribute to a more healthy, independent, and sustainable provision of food for cities (and regions), using Casablanca, Marocco, as an example.
The ideas, thoughts, analyses, and results presented below should all be considered in the context of the inter- and transdisciplinary research project Urban Agriculture as an Integrative Factor of Climate-Optimised Urban Development, Casablanca, UAC, within the framework of the Future Megacities research programme funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
