Food Movement between Autonomy and Coproduction of Public Policies Lessons from Madrid

Marian Simon-Rojo, Inés Morales Bernardos,
and Jon Sanz Landaluze

In the aftermath of the economic crisis in the city of Madrid,
food geography transformed. The urban unemployed began to engage in
agriculture in peri urban areas, creating new alliances between producers
and consumers. Over a period of 15 years the alternative food movement
organized on the fringe gave way to agroecological civic platforms that are
highly assertive, and a dialogue with political institutions has opened. A key
moment in the advance of this proactive attitude came about in the municipal
elections of May 2015. Activists ascended to positions of political power
and the backdrop of the Milan Urban Food Policy Pact, created an opportunity
for the food movement to move from protest to program, and public
policies permeated by agroecological principles.
