Cultivating Robust Food Systems in Freiburg

When was the last time you wandered through your local food market? How do the offerings at a market compare to those at a supermarket? In this episode, we explore the vital role of food systems in fostering a healthier, more sustainable city - from collaborative community projects to bridging the gap between urban and rural neighbourhoods. As a member of ICLEI Europe for more than 30 years, Freiburg, in Germany, stands as a leading example of connecting local food to communities.

This conversation features Eva Coydon, Manager and Coordinator of major projects and financing for the Freiburg & Region Food Policy Council; and Anna Bruen, Senior Expert for biodiversity, nature-based solutions, and sustainable food systems at ICLEI Europe.
