Food security, agriculture and landscape

Abstract

This paper examines the relationship between the global environmental crisis, migration, and the critical role of Landscape Architecture in seeking sustainable solutions. Faced with issues such as food insecurity, and biodiversity loss, landscape architects, with their holistic approach, can contribute to creating more resilient environments. Migration, which is steadily increasing, generates temporary and permanent settlements where living conditions are precarious, with a lack of essential resources such as water and food, heightening the vulnerability of these communities and their psychosocial risks, underlining the urgent need to create safe and sustainable landscapes for migrants. Landscape Architecture stands out as a key discipline for promoting territorial justice and creating multifunctional spaces that improve the quality of life for migrant communities.
