Témata: The role of traditional food systems in rapid urbanization: improving the maintenance of indigenous knowledge around the significance of consumption and preparation of traditional fruit and vegetables: policy briefing note 3
Popis: This Briefing Note is the third in a series of four. It discusses knowledge about the consumption and preparation of traditional fruit and vegetables (TFVs) and explores opportunities to retain and spread this knowledge and thereby increase consumption of nutritious food. This Briefing Note argues that existing knowledge on the preparation and storage of TFVs should be enhanced and widely disseminated, thereby increasing awareness and consumption of TFVs. Recommendations include that the City of Johannesburg (CoJ) municipality supports multi-stakeholder partnerships to: 1) Increase awareness of the health and nutritional benefits of TFVs; and 2) Enhance knowledge of TFVs amongst youth, who are less likely to consume TFVs in contrast to older residents.
