La reciente y continua volatilidad en los precios de los alimentos ha hecho tomar conciencia de la importancia de la Agricultura Urbana y Periurbana (AUP) como un importante recurso de la seguridad alimentaria y nutricional, tanto en términos del suministro de alimentos, como de generación de empleo e ingresos para la población de bajos recursos y por su contribución al equilibrio del desarrollo nacional y a un ambiente urbano más vivible.
This study builds a profile of the status of poverty and vulnerability in Malawi. Malawi is a small land-locked country, with one of the highest population densities in Sub-Saharan Africa, and one of the lowest per capita income levels in the world. Almost 90 percent of the population lives in rural areas, and is mostly engaged in smallholder, rain-fed agriculture. Most people are therefore highly vulnerable to annual rainfall volatility. The majority of households cultivate very small landholdings, largely for subsistence.
