This discussion paper argues for the integration of food issues into urban planning in Chinese cities. Drawing on survey data and specific observations from Nanjing, it shows that China’s urban planning has inadvertently addressed a number of important aspects of sustainable food systems. The paper provides a preliminary analysis of various priorities for food system planning and identifies strengths and challenges in terms of achieving sustainability goals in Chinese cities.application/pdfenFOOD SECURITYLOCAL FOOD SYSTEMSCITIESURBANIZATIONURBAN PLANNINGECOSYSTEMSFOOD SAFETYFOOD DISTRIBUTIONFOOD POLICYCHINAFAR EAST ASIAWorking Paper
