| Advancing Urban-Rural Linkages: Digital Technology and Innovative Solutions for Food Flows and Territorial Resilience in East Africa | 2025 | Food security and sustainable urban-rural connections are critical to territorial resilience in East Africa, yet many challenges persist. Smallholder farmers, traders, and policymakers face obstacles such as inefficient value chains, poor infrastructure, and a lack of access to digital tools that could optimize food distribution and market participation. As cities grow and demand for food increases, there is an urgent need to integrate digital innovations into food systems to improve efficiency, transparency, and inclusivity. This strategy paper explores the role of digital technology in enhancing food flows and territorial resilience in Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda. It presents case studies on successful digital solutions, including mobile applications, e-commerce platforms, and smart agricultural innovations, which are transforming food markets and supply chains. Developed through a collaborative effort involving UN agencies, academia, international NGOs, and government stakeholders, this publication provides a roadmap for implementing digital tools in food systems. |
