  • RU:RBAN Second Wave: Εξακολουθούμε να μιλάμε για τη Διαχείριση των Αστικών Κήπων

    Η αστική κηπουρική είναι ένα εργαλείο αστικής πολιτικής, αλλά κυρίως σημαίνει τοπική, περιφερειακή και εποχιακή παραγωγή τροφίμων στις πόλεις-κωμοπόλεις. Κατά την περίοδο του COVID-19 έχει γίνει όλο και περισσότερο τάση, της μόδας,  μία μοντέρνα επιλογή,  αλλά σε ορισμένες περιπτώσεις και ένα κρίσιμο αστικό εργαλείο κατά της φτώχειας. Οι άνθρωποι σε όλο τον κόσμο και κυρίως στην Ευρώπη όλο και περισσότερο συγκομίζουν και σπέρνουν φυτά και λαχανικά σε αστικούς κοινοτικούς κήπους.
