We would like to receive your contribution or suggestions for the next issue of the UA-Magazine:

NO. 18: COMMUNITY-BASED URBAN AGRICULTURE (MAY 2007)

Deadline for Contributions: 1 MARCH 2007

The UA-Magazine facilitates sharing of information on the impacts of urban agriculture, promotes the analysis and debate on critical issues for the development of the sector, and the publication of "best" or "good" practices in urban agriculture.

The Urban Agriculture Magazine (UA Magazine) is published two times a year on the RUAF-website (www.ruaf.org) and in hardcopy version. This English version is translated in Spanish, French, Arabic, Chinese, and Portuguese, and recently several issues have been translated in Turkish.

The UA-Magazine is produced under the RUAF programme Cities Farming for the Future, funded by DGIS (the Netherlands) and IDRC (Canada).
