Nesse sentido, a presente tese é resultado de um estudo efetivado junto/com os agricultores envolvidos no Projeto de Agricultura Urbana e Peri-Urbana realizado pelo Núcleo de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande (NUDESE/FURG) no biênio 2008/2009 e que apresentava como proposta a transição agroecológica. As políticas públicas relacionadas à questão da fome e produção de alimentos no Brasil defendem a Agricultura Urbana e Periurbana como uma prática que pode garantir a Segurança Alimentar das populações, mas essa é uma questão que carece ser problematizada e se configura no cerne do problema de pesquisa aqui desenvolvido. Então, partindo das leituras e pesquisas empíricas realizadas essa assertiva é confrontada tomando por base os fundamentos e princípios da Educação Ambiental Transformadora. A tese afirmada é a de que para além dos limites impostos pelo Capitalismo, o desenvolvimento de uma agricultura de base agroecológica – que traz em seu bojo a diversificação da produção e a criação de espaços de formação junto aos agricultores – contribui para a garantia de avanços na busca pela Soberania Alimentar. Além disso, possibilita espaços formativos importantes para a necessária aproximação entre a teoria e as práticas/ações desenvolvidas no campo da Educação Ambiental e da Agroecologia. Os objetivos do estudo foram identificar as mudanças/permanências na forma de organização da produção agrícola de base agroecológica realizadas pelas famílias; apontar os aspectos limitantes e as potencialidades do Projeto e analisar os desafios das ações da Educação Ambiental em sua vertente transformadora frente tal contexto, no que se refere às mudanças nas/das condições materiais e subjetivas que constituem a agricultura de base familiar. A metodologia desenvolvida na pesquisa partiu da revisão bibliográfica, envolvendo a observação participante e a realização de entrevistas. No que tange à discussão/reflexão dos dados/fontes utilizou-se da Análise Textual Discursiva. A partir do estudo realizado, cabe afirmar, corroborando para a ratificação da tese, que as ações desenvolvidas pelo NUDESE, seja no que se refere ao processo formativo ou voltadas à transição agroecológica, foram fundamentais na constituição de espaços de esperança/possibilidades de mudança das condições de injustiça socioambientais hodiernas. De toda sorte, há aspectos que limitaram a proposta em questão e que corroboram para a reafirmação da necessidade de superação do Capitalismo. Esse é o caso da não continuidade de financiamento do Projeto por parte do Ministério do Desenvolvimento Social e Combate à Fome (MDS); a falta de dialogo e articulação mais intensa com o Poder Público Municipal em ambas as cidades estudadas; os problemas estruturais que estão presentes nas feiras livres; a ausência de discussões fundamentais ao longo do processo formativo desenvolvido pelo NUDESE, como é o caso da crítica a forma de organização da produção atual, e seus limites, a relação estabelecida entre os homens entre si e desses com a natureza da qual fazem parte e o protagonismo que os agricultores devem ter com relação às mudanças em sua forma de produzir e viver em um processo como esse. / This dissertation was based on a study carried out with farmers involved in the Urban and Peri-urban Agriculture Project which was developed by the Núcleo de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social at the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande (NUDESE/FURG), located in Rio Grande, RS, Brazil, in 2008 and 2009. Results show that, beyond the limits imposed by capitalism, the development of Agroecologybased agriculture – which means the diversification of production and the elaboration of educational programs for farmers – has contributed to ensure advances in the search for Food Sovereignty. Furthermore, it has become an important space to discuss and work in Transformative Environmental Education in order to intertwine its theory and its effective practice/action along with the farmers. This study aimed at verifying whether the development of the proposal contributed to ensure the families’ Food Sovereignty and at identifying the limits and possibilities of this action regarding changes it generated and reflections/actions that helped to overcome Environmental Injustice which has been experienced as a whole nowadays. Besides, this research has three specific objectives, namely: to identify changes, if any, in the organization of the families’ Agroecology-based agricultural production; to show the limits and the potentiality the Project has; and to analyze the challenges of actions in Environmental Education in its transformative trend in this context, regarding changes in the material and subjective conditions that constitute family farming. The methodology comprised a literature review, participant observation and interviews with the farmers. Discursive Textual Analysis was used to discuss and reflect upon the data and sources. Actions developed by NUDESE, in terms of the educational process and practices that aim at agroecological transition, were fundamental to create spaces where hope and changes may happen, as opposed to the form of economic organization that prevails these days by defending the interests of agribusiness, rather than little units of family farming. However, there were aspects that limited the actions under investigation and that corroborated the need to cope with capitalism. One of them was the reason why the Project was not funded by the Ministério do Desenvolvimento Social e Combate à Fome (MDS) anymore. In addition, this study pointed out the lack of dialogue and close interaction with the City Government in both cities under study, structural problems faced in street fairs and the lack of discussion throughout the educational program developed by NUDESE concerning the criticism aimed at the organization of the current production, the limits of capitalism, the relations that humans have established among themselves and with nature they live in and, finally, the farmers’ participation in changes related to how they can produce and life in a process like this one.

Ainda que o cultivo de alimentos em meio urbano seja uma atividade milenar, foi na segunda metade da década de 1990 que a chamada agricultura urbana e periurbana (AUP) adquiriu destaque no cenário nacional e mundial, afirmando-se como um instrumento de integração nos processos de desenvolvimento sustentável. Alinhada aos princípios do direito humano à alimentação e da soberania alimentar, a implantação de uma Política Nacional de Agricultura Urbana constitui uma das metas do Plano Nacional de Segurança Alimentar e Nutricional para o período 2012- 2015. Como uma temática ainda pouco estudada pela academia, cabe investigar mais profundamente, no âmbito da saúde pública, as conexões entre a Agricultura Urbana e Periurbana e a Promoção da Saúde. Com o objetivo geral de compreender a importância, os desafios e as possibilidades da prática da AUP, a partir da experiência do município do Embu das Artes/SP, localizado na Região Metropolitana de São Paulo, o estudo se propôs a identificar os projetos de AUP no município; identificar os valores e significados atribuídos às experiências pelos participantes, membros de conselhos, técnicos e profissionais das Unidades Básicas de Saúde; explorar as conexões da agricultura urbana com as dimensões dos Serviços de Saúde no nível da Atenção Primária, do Abastecimento e do Planejamento Territorial; pesquisar as interfaces entre a agricultura urbana e as diretrizes da Promoção da Saúde. Os dados foram coletados por meio de questionário sócio-demográfico junto aos participantes dos projetos, entrevistas individuais e grupos focais. Para complementar as informações, realizou-se análise documental de materiais produzidos pelo governo e pela sociedade civil. A sistematização dos dados seguiu os parâmetros da perspectiva dialética, que destaca a importância da compreensão das contradições na análise das estruturas e do caráter histórico e dinâmico das ações. Os resultados apontam uma estreita ligação entre a prática das hortas e as diretrizes da Promoção da Saúde. Foi possível identificar significados e valores, tanto no nível individual como no coletivo, convergentes com o ideário da Promoção da Saúde, associados aos seus diferentes campos e princípios, como a criação de ambientes saudáveis, o reforço da ação comunitária, o desenvolvimento de habilidades pessoais, o resgate de práticas e hábitos tradicionais, o estímulo à autonomia e ao empoderamento e demandas por reorientação dos serviços. A partir do componente da multifuncionalidade da Agricultura Urbana e Periurbana aqui estudada com ênfase em suas conexões com a Atenção Básica da Saúde, com o campo do Abastecimento Alimentar e do Planejamento Territorial, um aspecto a ser aprofundado diz respeito à necessidade de definição de estratégias intra e inter setoriais, para viabilizar maior integração junto às secretarias que realizam interfaces com o tema, de forma a efetivar o comprometimento do conjunto da gestão, em parceria com as organizações sociais e referenciada no território. / Although the growing of food in urban areas is an ancient activity, it was in the second half of the 1990s that the so-called urban and peri-urban agriculture (PUA) acquired prominence in the national and world stage, asserting itself as an integration tool in sustainable development processes. Aligned with the principles of the human right to food and food sovereignty, the establishment of a National Agricultural Urban Policy is one of the goals of the National Food Security and Nutrition Plan for the period of 2012-2015. As a thematic still not appropriate by the academy, there is room for further investigation,within the public health system, to understand the connections between PUA and Health Promotion. With the overall goal to understand the importance, challenges and possibilities of the practice of PUA, from the experience of the city Embu das Artes / SP, located in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo, this study aimed to identify the PUA projects in the municipality; identify the values and meanings attributed to the experiences by the participants, board members, technicians and professionals of the Basic Health Units; explore the connections of urban agriculture with the dimensions of Health Primary Care, Supply and Urban Planning; research interfaces between urban agriculture and health promotion guidelines. Data were collected by using a socio-demographic questionnaire with the participants of the projects, individual interviews and focus groups. To complement the information, a documentary analysis of materials, produced by the government and civil society, was performed. The systematization of the data followed the parameters placed by the dialectical perspective that highlights the importance of understanding the contradictions in the analysis of structures and the historic and dynamic character of the actions. The results show a close link between the practice of gardens and Health Promotion guidelines. It was possible to identify meanings and values, both individually and collectively, convergent with the ideas of Health Promotion, associated with their different fields and principles such as the creation of healthy environments, strengthening community action, developing personal skills, the rescue of traditional practices and habits, the encouragement of autonomy and empowerment and demands for reorientation of services. From the multifunctional component of Peri-Urban Agriculture, studied here, with emphasis on its connections to Primary Health, with the field of Food Supply and Urban Planning, an aspect, which deserves deeper study, concerns the need to clearly define intra- and inter-sector strategies, to enable a greater integration within the departments that perform interfaces with this theme, in order to carry out the commitment of the entire management, in partnership with social and referenced in territory organizations.

Zambia is a highly urbanized country with 60% of its urban population residing in low cost areas also called peri-urban, slum or informal settlements. The increase in urban population attributed to rapid migration and urbanization due to political and economic changes has taken a toll on service provision as the infrastructure development and service provision has failed to meet the demand. For the 33 peri-urban areas in Lusaka, the water supply and sanitation has been poor, inadequate and unreliable with the coverage being slightly above 50% for water while 90% of the urban population does not have access to the much needed sanitation. The low coverage is a result of lack the financial capacity on the part of the service providers to extend services to un served areas. This research focuses on the strategies to provide sustainable water and sanitation services to peri-urban areas to ensure improved accessibility through the expansion of infrastructure and attainment of full cost recovery. In this era of increasing migration to unplanned settlements where the services are inadequate, alternatives to public provision of water and sanitation services need to be put in place. One of the alternatives is the public-private partnership which encompasses the society, private and the civil society. As has been found in the study the best alternative should not only be completely bottom up but should also be more demand driven and be able to provide for greater contributions from the affected communities. The hypothesis of the study is to ascertain if provision of water supply to the Peri-Urban Areas (PUAs) can be achieved through the partnership between the water utility and the small scale water providers. Therefore, the objectives of the research are to: evaluate and compare the current service provision to the peri-urban areas by the utility and small scale providers in terms of technical, social and institutional arrangements and determine the best way of ensuring sustained service provision to peri urban areas and show how partnership can be the best solution to improving service delivery to these areas. Service provision in PUAs can not be achieved without the involvement of all the stakeholders especially the community who are also the users and whose major role is paying for the service to enhance sustainability. In this study the Small Scale Water Providers (SSWP) users were found to be satisfied with the service provided than the utility users who felt that more needed to be done. The two providers are found to have different strengths which when combined would enhance service provision. The collaboration between utility with its competence in water supply, technical installations, water quality testing and SSWP with theirs in community involvement, cost recovery, effective operation and maintenance and demand driven water schemes have to be merged to achieve the intended goal and it is also an indication that the two can complement each other. Utility should therefore consider opening investment accounts for all the areas so as to detach PUAs needs from the general plan and eventually budget as they would be self sustaining and enhance willingness to pay for the users. The SSWP should therefore be viewed as partners by all and licensing should be considered by the government for the benefit of the urban poor.

L’objet de cette thèse est d’analyser la double question de l’intégration ou de l’effacement progressif de l’agriculture dans la ville de Dakar et la valorisation agricole des déchets organiques urbains. Le premier aspect pose d’emblée la question de la gouvernance territoriale de l’action publique locale. Le second aspect renvoie à la multifonctionnalité de l’agriculture dans un contexte d’écologisation des activités humaines pour protéger l’environnement. Comment les maraîchers de Dakar s’adaptent-ils à cette double préoccupation ? La multifonctionnalité agricole peut-elle contribuer au maintien et au renforcement de l’activité maraîchère ? Ces questions ont été abordées en adoptant une approche interdisciplinaire croisant en particulier la sociologie et la géographie. Nous faisons l’hypothèse que cette nouvelle fonction environnementale de l’agriculture « péri-urbaine » constitue une opportunité pour les maraîchers de Dakar pour développer des stratégies d’adaptation au contexte local et au projet d’écologisation du secteur agricole. Une approche géographique de l’espace des Niayes (de Dakar) a fait apparaître que les pratiques agricoles sont largement déterminées par les caractéristiques de ce milieu soumis à une anthropisation renforcée par l’urbanisation. Nous montrons aussi que la mise en agenda des problèmes agricoles en ville à Dakar ressemble plus à de l’affichage politique qu’à une réelle inscription dans le projet urbain. Enfin, il existe des facteurs bloquants à surmonter pour « intensifier écologiquement » les systèmes de production agricole. Certains de ces facteurs trouvent leur origine dans l’inscription des pratiques agricoles dans le système socio-culturel local et dans le rapport des maraîchers avec le « monde » scientifique et les questions d’environnement. / The purpose of this thesis is to analyze the double issue of integration or the gradual disappearance of agriculture in the city of Dakar and the agricultural use of urban organic waste. The first aspect raises immediately the question of territorial governance of local public action. The second aspect refers to the multifunctionality of agriculture in the context of greening of human activities to protect the environment. How do gardeners adapt to this double concern: to maintain agriculture in city and promote urban organic waste? How can agricultural multifunctionality contribute to maintain and strengthen gardening activity? These issues were tackled by adopting an interdisciplinary approach crossing especially sociology and geography. We suppose that this new environmental function of “peri-urban” agriculture is an opportunity for gardeners in Dakar to develop strategies for adaptation to the local context and to the project of greening of agriculture. A geographical approach of Niayes’ space (Dakar) showed that agricultural practices are largely determined by the characteristics of this environment under human transformation reinforced by urbanization. We show also that the agenda of agricultural development problems in the city Dakar is likely to display political than an actual entry in the urban project. Finally, it remains blocking factors to overcome for “environmentally intensify” the systems of production of agriculture. Some of these factors are based on the registration of agricultural practices in the local socio-cultural system and the relations that gardeners have with the scientific “world” and environmental issues.

The rural landscape surrounding the bigger cities are becoming increasingly fragmented due to pressures from urbanization and higher demands on conflicting usages of available buildable land. This has resulted in the natural and cultural landscapes in peri-urban areas being threatened. One usage of this land by equine sport is expanding where the horses need access to land and nature. A great majority of the horses in Sweden are kept in peri-urban areas, but horse keeping is also a factor that increases the risk for land use conflicts. The aim of this study is to better understand the role of horse keeping in the peri-urban landscape, by investigating these activities through the lens of ecosystem services. This study looked into the challenges and potential of horse keeping in physical planning, and how it is currently included by the local government of Österåker municipality in Stockholm county. This was achieved as a qualitative case study, consisting of interviews with local horse keepers, a web based survey for municipal residents and an analysis of available local government planning policies, reports and strategic documents. Horse keeping was found to be primarily associated with cultural ecosystem services, by its contribution to the equine sport sector and the preservation of the rural cultural and natural landscape with high recreational values. By preserving farmland and grazing pastures for horses, horse keeping can also be linked to supporting, regulating and provisioning ecosystem services. In addition, horse keeping in peri-urban areas was found to end in the periphery of the local physical planning. However, there is a need to integrate a long-term strategy and holistic perspective to achieve the full potential of the horse keeping, considering the contribution to the ecosystem services. There is a need for a more creative planning if horses should reach the potential as a resource and a planning tool for a sustainable development in the dynamic peri-urban landscape.

M. Tech. (Department of Visual Arts and Design, Faculty of Human Sciences), Vaal University of Technology. / Fashion entrepreneurs with no formal fashion-related education or training are hereafter referred to by the acronym FEWFFET (fashion entrepreneurs without formal fashion-related education or training). Entrepreneurship provides a feasible means of employment in a country where national unemployment rates are alarmingly high. To succeed, entrepreneurs require business knowledge and skill to operate profitable and sustainable businesses. However, entrepreneurs who were previously disadvantaged often possess only low levels of education, limited qualifications and training. This applies to survivalist fashion entrepreneurs in the Sedibeng District Municipality (SDM) who produce various items of apparel and clothing. Over a third of these entrepreneurs are not formally educated in business management and may not possess the adequate knowledge to operate their fashion business successfully. The research aim was to investigate the uses and challenges pertaining to business skills amongst FEWFFET to determine their business skills training needs. The sample population included 105 black fashion entrepreneurs, operating micro, survivalist enterprises within peri-urban, resource-poor communities in the Emfuleni Local Municipality (ELM) of Sedibeng, Gauteng. A quantitative study using non-probability purposive sampling and snowball sampling was performed. Interviewer-administered questionnaires were conducted with respondents at fabric and haberdashery stores or within their home-business environments. The results indicated that respondents lacked business plan development skills and showed only moderate skills in finance and marketing. Respondents indicated business skills training needs for developing a business plan, conducting basic bookkeeping, determining correct product pricing, drafting quotations and invoices, developing a budget, conducting basic market research and advertising their products and services.

Nature based sports and outdoor recreation activities are much appreciated, but continued densification in urban and peri-urban areas may reduce future opportunities to take part in such activities in a desirable way. To be able to consider the needs of these activities, in relation to other competing land use interests, it is essential to understand why people engage in the activities and how the nature landscape contributes and is used. The aim of this degree project is, therefore, to investigate motives and preferences among participants in various nature based activities, and to describe the role of nature and the participants’ relation to the nature landscape. While many previous studies have targeted recreational activities, where participation traditionally is non-competitive and focused on wellbeing, this study mainly targets nature based sports, where activities, in general, are more physical and result-oriented. The study has a descriptive approach where Rudan, a nature reserve in southern Stockholm, is used as a case study. There, data was primarily collected through a questionnaire (N=64), distributed among members of sport clubs in Rudan as well as among visitors on site. Responses were then analysed through cross-tabulations. The results indicate that people have varying, and often several, motives for taking part in their activities and for performing their activities in a particular setting. The results also show that the nature landscape, and the characteristics it holds, has an important role to play in many aspects; it can be a driver of motivation, a stage for the activity, and a generator of human benefits. The relatively small sample size does, however, affect the accuracy of the study, and more research is needed to get a comprehensive understanding. Nevertheless, the findings can be used to raise awareness and communicate the value of nature in nature based sports and outdoor recreation activities. Recognising nature’s multiple roles and values for participants in such activities will be necessary when analysing potential effects of future development plans or interventions in the peri-urban nature landscape. / Utomhusidrott och friluftsliv utgör uppskattade inslag i många människors vardag, men med fortsatt förtätning i städer och i stadsnära grönområden riskerar de framtida möjligheterna att delta i sådana aktiviteter att försämras. För att möta dessa aktiviteters behov, framförallt då de utsätts för konkurrens av andra samhällsintressen, är det nödvändigt att förstå grunderna för deltagande i sådana utomhusaktiviteter, samt hur naturlandskapet används och bidrar till upplevelsen. Syftet med detta examensarbete är därför att undersöka motiv och preferenser bland deltagare i olika naturrelaterade idrotts- och friluftsaktiviteter, och att därutöver beskriva naturens roll och deltagarnas relation till naturlandskapet. Då många tidigare studier har fokuserat på friluftsliv, där deltagande traditionellt sett är inriktat på rekreation och välmående, vänder sig denna studie främst mot idrottsaktiviteter, där deltagande i allmänhet är mer fysiskt och resultatinriktat. Studien har ett beskrivande tillvägagångssätt där Rudan, ett naturreservat i södra Stockholm, används som fallstudie. Flera metoder har använts, men data har främst inhämtats genom en enkätundersökning (N = 64) som besvarades av medlemmar i idrottsföreningar i Rudan samt av besökare på plats. Svaren analyserades sedan med hjälp av pivottabeller. Resultaten visar att det finns olika, och ofta flera, motiv för att delta i aktiviteterna och för att utföra aktiviteterna i ett visst område. Resultaten visar även att naturlandskapet har en viktig roll, sett ur många aspekter. Det kan vara en motiverande faktor, en arena för aktiviteten och bidra till många övriga mervärden. Då antalet respondenter i studien var relativt lågt är studiens resultat dock något osäkert, och mer omfattande undersökningar behövs för att skapa tydligare förståelse. Trots det kan resultaten i studien användas för att öka medvetenheten och tydliggöra naturens värde inom utomhusidrott och friluftsliv. Naturens många olika värden och roller för idrotts- och friluftslivsutövare bör sedan beaktas inom samhällsplaneringen i stort och vid framtida utveckling av stadsnära natur- och rekreationsområden.

L’agriculture intra et périurbaine est pratiquée dans la région urbaine de Dakar au Sénégal. Cependant, elle fait face à certaines menaces entraînant une réduction de ses espaces. Ce qui suscite la question de savoir l’importance qui serait accordée à ces espaces agricoles dans le contexte dakarois. La présente recherche vise ainsi à mieux comprendre ce phénomène. Dans ce cadre, le concept de multifonctionnalité a été adopté. Ce dernier postule que la reconnaissance de l’agriculture passe par celle des multiples fonctions qu’elle peut jouer au sein de la société. Ces dernières peuvent être d’ordre social, économique et environnemental. De plus, l’approche normative de ce concept a été adoptée posant que la multifonctionnalité de l’agriculture d’un territoire est fonction des enjeux territoriaux locaux. Donc elle ne peut être uniforme pour tous les territoires. Or ce concept a été plus utilisé dans des contextes occidentaux de sorte qu’il a été jugé « eurocentré ». Notre objectif était donc de d’explorer sous un angle particulier la multifonctionnalité de l’agriculture intra et périurbaine de Dakar, région urbaine d’un pays en développement. Dans ce cadre, nous nous sommes intéressée au concept de valeurs qui permet d’avoir une portée plus large des rôles que cette agriculture pourrait jouer. Pour y arriver, nous avons adopté un cadre théorique qui puise des champs de l’économie, des études paysagères, de l’écologie et de la géographie. L’objectif étant double : saisir les valeurs accordées à l’agriculture de Dakar, mais également comprendre le contexte d’émergence et de construction de ces valeurs afin de mieux comprendre ce phénomène d’évolution de l’agriculture. Notre approche devait donc également être multiacteur, car, dans l’approche normative de la multifonctionnalité, l’acteur agricole n’est plus le principal concerné par l’agriculture, mais tous les acteurs du territoire. En effet, la valeur de cette agriculture serait appréciée à partir des valeurs qu’elle représente pour l’ensemble des acteurs. Nos résultats nous ont montré que les acteurs urbains portent des valeurs qui apparaissent différentes selon leur lien avec ces espaces. Mais l’unanimité existe sur certaines valeurs de nature alimentaire et économique. Toutefois, de nouvelles valeurs de nature environnementale, esthétique et immatérielle apparaissent alors qu’elles étaient jusqu’ici peu mises de l’avant comme valeurs prioritaires dans le cadre de la multifonctionnalité d’une ville du Sud. Un autre élément déterminant des résultats est la compréhension des composantes du paysage ou le contexte d’émergence des valeurs. Ce contexte met en avant à la fois des éléments positifs, négatifs et ambivalents vis-à-vis de l’agriculture. Ainsi, les acteurs agricoles semblent plus évoquer les composantes positives tandis que d’autres acteurs tels que les techniciens et les citoyens évoquent plus des contraintes ou composantes négatives de nature foncière. / Intra- and peri-urban agriculture is practiced in the urban region of Dakar in Senegal. However, it faces some threats resulting in a reduction of its spaces. This raises the question of the importance that would be given to these agricultural areas in the Dakar context. This research aims to better understand this phenomenon. Within this framework, the concept of multifunctionality has been adopted. The latter postulates that the recognition of agriculture goes through that of the multiple functions that it can play within society. These can be social, economic and environmental. In addition, the normative approach of this concept has been adopted, positing that the multifunctionality of agriculture in a territory depends on local territorial issues. So it cannot be uniform for all territories. However, this concept has been used more in Western contexts so that it has been deemed “Eurocentric”. Our objective was therefore to explore from a particular angle the multifunctionality of intra- and peri-urban agriculture in Dakar, an urban region of a developing country. In this context, we are interested in the concept of values which allows us to have a broader scope of the roles that this agriculture could play. To achieve this, we have adopted a theoretical framework that draws from the fields of economics, landscape studies, ecology and geography. The objective is twofold: to grasp the values given to agriculture in Dakar, but also to understand the context of the emergence and construction of these values in order to better understand this phenomenon of the evolution of agriculture. Our approach should therefore also be multi-actor, because, in the normative approach of multifunctionality, the agricultural actor is no longer the main one concerned by agriculture, but all the actors of the territory. Indeed, the value of this agriculture would be assessed on the basis of the values it represents for all the actors. Our results have shown us that urban actors carry values that appear different depending on their link with these spaces. But there is unanimity on certain food and economic values. However, new values of an environmental, aesthetic and immaterial nature appear whereas they were hitherto little put forward as priority values within the framework of the multifunctionality of a city of the South. Another determining element of the results is the understanding of the components of the landscape or the context in which the values emerge. This context highlights both positive, negative and ambivalent elements vis-à-vis agriculture. Thus, agricultural actors seem to evoke more positive components while other actors such as technicians and citizens evoke more constraints or negative components of a land nature.
