dc.description.abstractFood forestry as an instrument to remedy negative consequences of urbanisation: How and to what extent could agroecology help to create a more sustainable future city (of Nijmegen)? This definition of sustainable city of the future, is separated into several urban agendas, which are conceptualized into types of cities: Low carbon use-, Resiliency-, Resource- efficiency-, Productive-, Biodiverse-, Healthy and happy, Green economy based cities. During analysis was found that the current cases already contribute to the more sustainable future city. Although, at this moment it is a small contribution which can emerge during time. By growth, the physical appearance of the forest and the functions develop. The theory of Shove pointed out that materials and competences might be the same for food forest projects in general. Although, the meaning of the food forests is diverse, which is mostly based on human action, such as happy and healthy and green economy based cities. Simultaneously, the age of the project is transforming the meaning of it. Time will make it possible to tell how and to what extent agroecology will contribute towards a more sustainable city. But therefore more research is essential to reflect and measure the variables over time.en_US
