People's Resource Centre’s Post

As part of the People’s Resource Initiative with the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD), #PRC aims to promote urban agriculture in Delhi through outreach meetings with the #councillors and the Horticulture Department of #MCD. The rationale for #urbanagriculture outreach is three-fold. Firstly, urban agriculture promotes environmental sustainability and helps create local systems of food production. Secondly, focusing on urban agriculture complements and aids various national and global initiatives including The National Education Policy recommendations to inculcate agriculture in school and college curricula, the #UN Sustainable Development Goals and the #Delhi government’s focus on Green jobs. Finally, the meetings with councillors raise awareness about the Citizen; ‘s Draft Policy on Urban Agriculture in Delhi created by the People’s Resource Centre on Urban Agriculture.
