The event “Feeding the City: Pathways to Sustainable Urban Policies” proposes a dialogue on how local governments can transform urban food systems towards sustainability, health, and social justice. The activity will bring together experiences from different Brazilian municipalities that have been developing innovative Food and Nutrition Security (FNS) policies aligned with the SDGs, the New Urban Agenda, and the discussions leading up to COP30. Given the urgency of the topic, the Comida do Amanhã Institute and the National Secretariat for Food and Nutrition Security of the Ministry of Social Development, Family, and Fight Against Hunger (SESAN/MDS) proposed a panel that highlights inspiring experiences on urban food policies from cities participating in LUPPA – Urban Lab for Public Food Policy and in the National Strategy for Food and Nutrition Security in Cities – Alimenta Cidades. The program will feature presentations from the municipalities of Santarém (PA), Contagem (MG), João Pessoa (PB), Osasco (SP), São José dos Pinhais (PR), and Vitória da Conquista (BA), addressing initiatives such as public procurement from family farming, urban gardens, food banks, and food education projects. The meeting aims to showcase practical pathways to strengthen municipal food governance and promote integrated solutions that respond to the climate, social, and economic challenges faced by Brazilian cities.
