dc.description.abstractEnglish: Planning for urban agriculture can be one element in the development of “pro-poor” urban strategies in South Africa. This article examines international and South African writings and research on the role of urban agriculture in poverty reduction. It is argued that there is a need for policy guidelines to support emerging local-level initiatives aimed at encouraging urban agriculture across South Africa. The foundation for a set of policy guidelines for South Africa may be found in the best practice of international policy interventions for urban agriculture.en_ZA
dc.description.abstractAfrikaans: Beplanning vir stedelike landbou kan een aspek vorm vir die ontwikkeling van “proarm” stedelike strategieë in Suid-Afrika. Hierdie artikel ondersoek internasionale en Suid-Afrikaanse publikasies oor die rol van stedelike landbou in armoedebestryding. Daar word betoog dat daar regoor Suid-Afrika ’n behoefte is aan beleidsriglyne ter ondersteuning van nuwe inisiatiewe op ’n plaaslike vlak wat stedelike landbou aanmoedig. Die basis vir ’n stel beleidsriglyne aangaande stedelike landbou in Suid-Afrika kan in die beste praktykervarings van internasionale beleidintervensies gevind word.en_ZA
