  • Feeding a Cooperative Food Network in a Time of Pandemic

    This article presents brief comments on three ideas that describe the state of mind of the FOOD CORRIDORS network just before giving way to the final period of a project that has seen the light and grown parallel to the life cycle of a pandemic. It has been a strange circumstance that we would nevertheless like to consider as the engine that has pushed a desire for rebirth or rejuvenation for our network. We understand this rebirth as the means to cultivate new ways of working, new spaces of relationship, environments of curiosity that generate transformative action to the proposed problems. The FOOD CORRIDORS partners, together with the network's experts and the URBACT Programme, have evaluated what we have experienced, what we have learned, and what we would like to propose to continue with the challenge of cooperation between European cities in the face of their significant challenges.
