Cities Accelerating Transitions to Regenerative Food Systems

Evidence from Dar es Salaam suggests that cities can accelerate regenerative transitions by building on existing organic food cultures, valorising access to food systems data, strengthening multi-level governance, and fostering effective and inclusive collaboration across diverse food system actors.• Food systems actors need to determine the value of a regenerative transition and how best to practice and harness their food systems relationships towards this goal.• Participatory approaches can strengthen locally led and regenerative transitions while addressing persistent knowledge and capacity gaps.They can also inform future efforts to deepen, scale and transfer learnings across cities, and in different contexts.
