Institutionalization of participatory food system research:: Encouraging reflexivity and collective relational learning
Year: 2018
Type: article
Abstract: This paper draws on an ongoing experience of supporting participatory action research for sustainable food systems in Brussels. To share our insights and identify learnings from this ex-perience, we bring together discussions in the literature on the development of an urban food systems perspective on agroecology, the institutionalization of agroecology and of participa-tory action research. We show how stimulating reflexivity and collective relational learning, hold promises as a strategy for resisting the potential drawbacks of the institutionalization of partici-patory food system research.
