Abstract

Il cibo, unità base di connessione tra tutti gli SDGs, assume nella transizione verso un paradigma di sviluppo sostenibile un ruolo cruciale. Questo saggio si propone di contribuire, in maniera scientifica, alla definizione della cornice teorico-pratica nella quale si sta sviluppando la Circular Economy for Food e in particolare la sua applicazione nel contesto urbano. Con l’aumentare della popolazione, cresce la domanda di risorse nelle aree urbane, emergono problemi ambientali e differenze socio-economiche tra i cittadini. L’analisi parte dallo studio di 27 case histories relative al food system, selezionate in modo da essere rappresentative dei modelli di business circolari emergenti nei contesti urbani e quanto più diversificate tra le fasi della filiera alimentare. Di queste, 9 sono approfondite in questo saggio per rendere più chiara l’analisi svolta. Ne emerge un quadro denominato Smart Food in cui l’economia circolare urbana dialoga in chiave sistemica e rigenerativa con lo sviluppo sostenibile.
