UNIVERSITy TOULOUSE - JEAN JAURèSResearch Center

54% of the world's population lives in urban areas (UN,2014) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of theUnited Nations (FAO) forecasts that in 2050, 80% ofhumanity will live in the city. In this context, urban agriculture(UA) is developing largely in very different forms in the largeagglomerations of the world. They support the project offood self-sufficiency and reactivate the utopia of a fertile citywith edible landscapes. With the agri-urban project, the UAproposes the implementation of a win-win process wherecity and agriculture are reinvented jointly. The developmentof sustainable UAs, however, requires cross-reflection onissues of agronomy, environment and health, spatialplanning, urban metabolism and education. This is why theinternational congress "Sustainable UA: Vector for theEcological Transition" organized by the CERTOP andLISST laboratories brings together in Toulouse the actorsof urban agriculture (scientists, politicians, associations,technicians and students), to present, discuss andquestion the various facets of UA. Six thematic sessionswill be organized according to presentations, discussions(posters and round tables), and site visits.

•Session 1: Urban agronomy•Session 2: Agriculture in Urban Projects and Experiences•Session 3: Environment and Health•Session 4: Circular economy: Urban metabolism and

eco-engineering•Session 5: Ecological Transition•Session 6: Urban Agriculture and Training
