Dec 10 2013 Urban Food Innovation Corridor

“To have the courage to start, one cannot
expect to have all the answers. The
planning of a city is a process that always
allows for corrections. Opening
communication channels for the
population to contribute, inform and
correct is key. A path has to be open for
the population to assume the process as
its own – to become agents”
-Jaime Lerner, former Mayor of Curitiba, Brazil

put 120,000 dwelling units and
170,000 jobs in the next 20 years.”

“urban farming and local food movements
are increasing in popularity and
profitability as the eco-conscious
Millennials and the health-conscious
boomers increasingly demand to know
what’s in their food and where it comes
from”
-Nate Abrams, www.policymic.com


“incredible wealth and
advantage thrive alongside
increasingly intractable
pockets of concentrated
disadvantage”

been excluded from opportunity and
access.”
