    En Équateur, les circuits courts se développent, sous l’impulsion de l’État et des organisations de la société civile soucieuses de promouvoir l’agriculture familiale marginalisée. Cet article utilise le cadre analytique des moyens d’existence durables (Sustainable Livelihoods Framework) pour étudier les effets sur des petits producteurs agricoles de leur participation à une foire hebdomadaire de vente directe aux consommateurs, à Quito. Il montre que cette participation entraîne, de manière directe et indirecte, un renforcement de plusieurs de leurs capitaux, qui induit à son tour une amélioration des conditions d’existence et des ressources productives.In Ecuador, short food supply chains are developing under the impetus of the State and civil society organizations concerned with the promotion of marginalized family farming. This paper uses the Sustainable Livelihoods Framework to shed light on the effects on small scale farmers of their participation in a weekly fair of direct sales to consumers in Quito. It shows that this participation entails, directly and indirectly, a strengthening of many of their assets, which in turn leads to an improvement in living conditions and productive resources

    This chapter presents an emerging effort to develop a participatory mapping methodology that will illuminate the pathways through which sustainable urban food systems achieve lasting impact. Carried out in collaboration with EstĂ  (Economia e SostenibilitĂ ), the UNESCO Chair in World Food System (at Montpellier SupAgro), CIRAD (French Agricultural Research Centre for International Development) and the LCSFS (Laurier Center for Sustainable Food Systems), this initiative aims to provide an alternative to quantitative tools that lack precision at the local level, and to qualitative approaches holding a narrow focus that may obscure broader systemic dynamics. This URBAL project focuses on innovations in consumer practices, value-chains, and governance by examining 12 case studies in eight cities in the Global South and North
