The vision of Ndola's Urban Agriculture Policy is to alleviate poverty and promote development within an urban/peri-urban context. The policy aims to: (i) contribute to poverty alleviation and socio-economic development by implementing an integrated strategy for urban/peri-urban farming; (ii) promote urban/peri-urban agricultural development at the municipal level; and (iii) create an institutional and legal framework for stakeholder participation, consultation and capacity building within the agriculture sector. The major goal of the policy is to implement a developed, legal and sustainable urban agriculture system that is well-coordinated and contributes to the city's economy.
