Acerca de Urban Futures

Urban Futures (UF) is a 5-year global program (2023–2027) at the intersection of urban food systems, youth well-being, and climate action. UF program is funded by Fundación Botnar, managed by Hivos with the RUAF Global Partnership on Urban Agriculture and Food Systems, and local partners, networks, and experts.

The Urban Futures program aims to contribute to inclusive, climate-resilient cities and urban food systems where young people collaborate to voice their priorities, influence decisions, and seize opportunities in the food sector. It focuses on shorter, fairer, and more sustainable value chains that provide healthy, affordable, and attractive food options for all.

UF addresses innovative and inclusive food system approaches to improve access to sustainable, diverse, and nutritious food and ensure food security. Sustainable agriculture addresses threats to livelihoods and food and nutrition security resulting from climate impacts.

UF supports local partners and innovators, especially young people, in building more inclusive, climate-resilient urban food systems where youth collaborate to voice their priorities, influence decisions, and seize opportunities in the food sector. The program aims to achieve this through multi-stakeholder collaborations and locally-owned innovations.
