Where People & Planet meet…
(WHO) run Food & Nutrition programmes that address the "double
burden" of hunger and obesity (European Action Plan for Food
& Nutrition Policy '07 - '12).
“Fortunately, the strategies needed to create desired changes in
nutritional and environmental patterns are often
complementary and, as a whole, provide cost-effective,
sustainable development for agricultural land....
l In addition, local strategies that seek to improve the
availability of, access to and consumption of locally produced
foods, particularly fruits and vegetables, also increase the
interdependence and thus the social cohesion between urban
and rural dwellers"
