The proposed scope broadly addresses issues relevant to urban and peri-urban food systems in achieving food security and nutrition.
An important area that should be addressed, in addition, relates to the tenure of land, fisheries and forests, including in relation to recording legitimate tenure rights, their valuation, taxation and spatial planning. These issues are dealt with in the CFS Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests in the context of National Food Security.
Many countries lack adequate systems for recording legitimate tenure rights; for identifying, analysing and understanding property values; for implementing appropriate equitable systems of property taxation to provide resources for local services, and; for transparent spatial planning systems.
These are important elements in enabling and managing urban and peri-urban agriculture.
