This publication maps out the city-region strategy for the implementation of the Urban Futures program in Medellin.
Medellin is the second-largest city in Colombia with a population of approximately 2.5M. Despite this, its rural heritage is still an integral part of the city’s identity, linked to people’s pride in their place of origin and traditions.
Urban Futures works at the intersection of urban food systems, youth wellbeing, and climate action. Operating in intermediary cities in five countries, it supports local partners and especially young people to create more inclusive, climate-resilient cities and urban food systems.
