Check out the novelties of the Performance assessment tool for Edible City Solutions (ECS)

by | Jun 14, 2021 | News

We are glad to inform you that the Performance assessment tool, available in the EdiCitNet toolbox web interface (https://toolbox.edicitnet.com/assessment/) has been improved.

One of the main novelties is that users can check out the TOP 10 Edible City Solutions (ECS) in terms of their performance regarding sustainability, urban challenges, and ecosystem services. Moreover, the TOP 10 ECS can also be organized by typology of ECS (e.g. private gardens, community gardens, community kitchens, local markets).

Another novelty is that users can explore the performance of a specific ECS or compare it with other ECS in terms of Sustainability, urban challenges, and ecosystem services. In addition, if you are interested to know more about this ECS, you can easily access their PROFILES from the performance assessment interface. Also, all the data concerning the performance assessment is public available in j.son and excel formats.

EdiCitNet is planning to improve even more the assessment tool. To do so, the tool will allow user to filter ECS per city, and thus explore, compare, and check the top 10 ECS per city.

The performance assessment tool is public and does not require registration to be used. Nevertheless, we kindly invite representatives of Edible City Solutions to create their profiles in the toolbox, and thus help us to expand the edible network, promote knowledge transfer and built together the most compressive database of Edible City Solutions. Please, let us know if you need help.

by | Jun 3, 2021 | Sin categorizar

This year’s IRITHESys Summer School is being organised by the EdiCitNet project, and will take place in a two-week online format from September 20th – October 1st 2021.

Participants in the EdiCitNet Summer School will get the opportunity to develop their own “Edible City Solution”, designed to effectively tackle local urban environmental and social challenges. Throughout the two weeks, transdisciplinary groups will explore the complexity of Edible City Solutions and the challenges and opportunities that exist when it comes to applying them in a real world context.

The event will bring together, and draw from insights, from both the academic and non-academic community – with experts supplying their knowledge on different topics from the broad field of edible city solutions, and practitioners providing their insights from the field. The EdiCitNet Summer School will also be adapting and combining successful aspects of common summer school formats, and complementing traditional elements such as lectures and presentations with group work, online team-building activities, interactive on-site sessions and transdisciplinary cooperation.

Highlights of the EdiCitNet Summer School include:⁠

  • Inspiring talks on sustainable urban design, innovative water and resource management and how best to apply Edible City Solutions in urban areas to tackle social challenges
  • Virtual on-site tours demonstrating best practices and insights into real-life Edible City Solutions
  • Engaging “hands-on” interactive tasks with stakeholders and the international ECS network
  • Project work and practical tasks within interdisciplinary working groups
  • Regular input and feedback from ECS experts from diverse backgrounds
  • A flexible, digital learning environment that can be adapted to your own individual schedule and fitted around other work or study commitments
  • An official certificate upon completion of the programme⁠
