Samenvatting

`
In the Foodscapes research programme Wiskerke is emphasising three themes: the dynamics of urban and rural places and spaces and the way in which those urban and rural dynamics influence one another; the social and economic relations between the urban and rural within city regions; and the possibility to develop more sustainable foodscapes at the city region level through (re)design. Wiskerke connects those themes to spatial design research by masters students of landscape architecture. They are eminently positioned to present spatial proposals for future cultural landscapes and to make important aesthetic contributions to the transformation of areas. The design research project in Dar es Salaam is the first project in a series of three. The essays and designs presented in this book are not the solution for a more sustainable and resilient urban foodscape, but do provide interesting building blocks and food for thought for rethinking and reshaping Dar es Salaam’s foodscape, with a focus on food security and quality of life, especially for the urban poor. With contributions by Gianni Cito, Marc Wegerif, Jerryt Krombeen, Anna Maria Fink, Leonardo Kappel, Meintje Delisse, Roy van Maarseveen and Tim Kort.
