The Indispensable Territorial Dimension of Food Supply: A View from Brazil During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Abstract

The research-activists network ‘Collective Action on Real Food’ analyzed alternative food supply initiatives formed in response and/or expanded due to the pandemic in Brazil and identified more than 260 examples. Despite this dynamism, the policy processes of the UN Food System Summit were not able to—or might not even have tried to—break the mechanisms that make such initiatives politically invisible.
