Synopsis (short abstract) The purpose of this handbook is to provide practical guidance for any city wishing to adopt and implement a monitoring framework of its urban food policy, tailored to its own context and reflecting recommendations from the Milan Urban Food Policy Pact (MUFPP). The guidance sets out practical steps, simple tools, top tips, and a methodology that other cities can follow. The MUFPP declaration lists a set of 37 recommended actions for cities wishing to develop their urban food policy. As an internationally recognized tool, the purpose of the MUFPP monitoring framework is to enable cities to develop their own urban food monitoring system. Cities are not applying “a MUFPP monitoring system” but rather using it as a framework from which to develop their own customized system. This handbook follows the MUFPP approach of methodology ‘designed by cities for cities’. It is based on the results and lessons learned from a seven-month project in 2019 during which three cities - Antananarivo (Madagascar), Nairobi (Kenya), and Quito (Ecuador) – piloted the implementation of the MUFPP Monitoring Framework with technical support from RUAF and FAO. This handbook also provides practical tools and resources (available online to download) for cities and practitioners who wish to develop a food policy monitoring system.

    The Milan Urban Food Policy Pact Monitoring Framework 2019
    Also available in:
    Many city mayors have committed to developing sustainable and resilient food systems, to provide nutritious and accessible food to all, while protecting biodiversity and fighting against food waste. With these objectives, 199 cities signed the Milan Urban Food Policy Pact (MUFPP), which laid-out 6 workstreams and 37 recommended actions. The purpose of the Monitoring Framework is to serve as an instrument for cities and urban food stakeholders to identify food-related policy and programme priorities. The Framework also serves to illustrate to what extent “desired changes” are happening, or how impactful such changes are. Thus, 44 indicators are defined and provide a monitoring framework for such Urban Food Policies.
