About

The effects posed by mass urbanization, industrial agriculture and climate change have brought forth a multitude of challenges, including food insecurity, ecological degradation, and social disparities. This research group explores alternative uses of urban land and digital agricultural innovations as potential solutions to these pressing issues within hyper-dense cities. By embracing a sustainable urban ecology we cultivate the idea of more resilient cities that reconnect residents with the environment and the food they eat.
