Design led innovation to rejuvenate local food systems and healthy communities: An emerging research agenda [PDF]
2013 IEEE Tsinghua International Design Management Symposium, 2013 Food Sovereignty (food freedom) is about empoweing people to develop their own local food system. Food Sovereignty challenges designers to enable people to innovate the local food system, rather than having a food system which is dictated by corporate interests and failed business ethics [1]. Communities are realising the potential for design to assist
