Introduction and Background

The Food Rights Alliance (FRA), in partnership with Rikolto, is implementing the 5-year Good Food for Cities (GF4Cs) project in Mbale and Kampala. This initiative aims to promote sustainable, equitable, and healthy food systems in city regions by supporting policy and practice changes. The GF4Cs project adopts a food systems approach to deliver co-benefits in human health, regenerative and low-carbon food systems, and a fair share for all actors in the food chain, including smallholder farmers. Through this approach, the project seeks to build local coalitions of businesses, consumers, local authorities, and other food system actors to transform urban food environments. This transformation aims to improve the consumption of healthy, sustainable, and nutritious food by all citizens, utilizing a 3-tier approach that encompasses production, inclusive markets, and an enabling environment.

FRA contributes to Result 3, which focuses on creating an enabling policy, financial, and normative environment at local, national, and international levels to incentivize healthy, sustainable, and nutritious diets in East African cities. To achieve this, FRA intends to develop an Advocacy Strategy that defines and mainstreams policy advocacy interventions, messages, and outcomes. The strategy aims to enhance sustainable, healthy, and nutritious diets in Mbale and Kampala cities. It will serve as a guiding framework to clarify FRA’s audience for change and inform strategic advocacy efforts.
