The main objective of the action programme and of the “FAO Green Cities Initiative” is to increase people’s wellbeing through better availability of and access to products and services provided by urban and peri‐urban forestry, agriculture and food systems. This action plans describes how FAO's Green Cities initiative will improve the livelihoods and well-being of urban and peri-urban populations of 1000 cities around the world by 2030, improving the urban environment, strengthening urban-rural linkages, the resilience of urban populations to external shocks and contributing to climate change mitigation and adaptation while ensuring access to healthy diets from sustainable systems. The plan describes ways in which local governments and communities will have the capacity to develop and implement context-specific strategies, actions and investment plans for the integrated design and management of resilient and sustainable multifunctional green infrastructure and food systems to ensure that green technologies, innovation and investments are scaled up.
