“…There was a strong emphasis in the studies on partnerships and co-development with communities, to align the intervention with their needs. Though the HPW framework was not used in any of the published reviews, our findings resonate partially with those identified by Burt et al [ 49 ]. Their review of thirty-one studies explored the social benefits of gardening and concluded that community garden interventions create community engagement by facilitating more social connection, community sharing and neighborhood participation [ 49 ].…”

Their review of thirty-one studies explored the social benefits of gardening and concluded that community garden interventions create community engagement by facilitating more social connection, community sharing and neighborhood participation [ 49 ]. There was sparse mention of community engagement in the other fifteen reviews of non-Indigenous gardening studies [ 24 , 25 , 44 ].…”

“…These reviews captured four hundred and forty-four studies in twenty-six countries which reflected a strong growing global interest in gardening as a public health intervention. The reviews targeted cardiovascular [ 44 ], chronic illnesses [ 23 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 ] and related risk factors [ 21 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 33 , 44 , 45 , 48 , 49 , 50 ]. Four reviews focused on school gardening studies [ 22 , 25 , 51 , 52 ].…”

“…Non-randomized designs and pre–post-test designs were commonly used to evaluate outcomes [ 45 ]. Qualitative evaluations were sometimes used to strengthen the interpretation of findings [ 22 , 24 , 44 , 46 , 49 , 51 , 52 ]. Within an evidence-based framework for evaluating the effectiveness of public health interventions, randomized designs are recognized to be problematic particularly in the context of implementation in community settings.…”

Acceptability and Feasibility of Community Gardening Interventions for the Prevention of Non-Communicable Diseases among Indigenous Populations: A Scoping Review

Compared with non-Indigenous populations, Indigenous populations experience worse health across many outcomes, including non-communicable diseases, and they are three times more likely to live in extreme poverty. The objectives were to identify (1) the content, implementation, and duration of the intervention; (2) the evaluation designs used; (3) the outcomes reported; and (4) the enablers and the challenges. Using the PRISMA-ScR guidelines, a search of research databases and grey literature was conducted. Seven studies met the inclusion criteria. Papers reported on acceptability, nutrition knowledge, fruit and vegetable intake, self-efficacy, motivation, and preference concerning fruit and vegetable, diet, and gardening. No study measured all outcomes. All papers reported on acceptability, whether implicitly or explicitly. The evaluation used mostly pre- and post-intervention assessments. The effect of gardening on nutrition and gardening knowledge and fruit and vegetable intake was inconclusive, and was related to a general lack of robust evaluations. Applying the He Pikinga Waiora Framework, however, revealed strong evidence for community engagement, cultural centeredness, integrated knowledge translation and systems thinking in increasing the acceptability and feasibility of gardening in Indigenous communities. Despite environmental challenges, the evidence signaled that gardening was an acceptable intervention for the Indigenous communities.

“…Az így kialakuló közösségi kertek a kertészkedést biztosítják azok számára, akik saját kerttel/ földterülettel nem rendelkeznek, de szeretnének maguknak élelmiszert termelni. A közösségi kertek tagjai kis parcellával rendelkeznek, amelyet maguk művelnek meg, és ezzel az is lehetővé válik a városlakók számára, hogy fizikailag és közösségileg is aktívak legyenek (Burt et al 2021, Kingsley et al 2009) miközben az alacsonyabb státuszú csoportok is részesülhetnek a minőségi élelmiszerekből (Martin et al 2017). Magyarországi viszonylatban Bársony (2020) azt állapította meg a közösségi kertekről, hogy működésüket elsősorban az egyéni célok határozzák meg, miközben a közösségi cselekvés és a közös eszme nem jellem-ző.…”

Az élelmiszerrendszer működése és jellemzői számos kérdést felvetnek az igazságosság szempontjából, köszönhetően elsősorban a nagyüzemi gazdálkodásnak, a foglalkoztatási sajátosságoknak és a kapcsolódó egészségügyi következményeknek. Az élelmiszer-igazságosság ideája az élelmiszerellátási lánc teljességét érinti az ún. „termelőtől a fogyasztó asztaláig” megközelítés keretében. A kérdéskör iránt élénk érdeklődés indult a 2000-es években, ezzel együtt magyar nyelvű publikáció elvétve található a témában. Jelen tanulmány célja, hogy bemutassa az élelmiszer-igazságosság ideáját és mozgalmát, kitérve azokra az aktuális kihívásokra, amelyek a 21. század mezőgazdaságát érintik az igazságosság tekintetében. A tanulmányban áttekintjük az élelmiszer-igazságosságot termelői és fogyasztói nézőpontból, valamint bemutatjuk az alternatív élelmiszerrendszereket, amelyek megoldást kínálhatnak az élelmiszer-termeléshez és fogyasztáshoz kapcsolódó igazságtalanságok megszüntetésére.

Initiation of urban agriculture in small‐scale urban areas not only serves an ecological function but has also become one of the most important measures in urban management for increasing the sociocultural capital and the mental and physical health of citizens through providing a site for the social relations of the urban population. Community gardens have become especially important in Iranian new towns, which are facing severe social challenges. This research attempts to evaluate the possibility of initiating a community garden in Pardis New Town using the qualitative approach and content analysis of interviews, focus group meetings, as well as online survey. Research findings have shown that despite the short period of residence in the Pardis New Town, due to the background of local and self‐organized communal activities to create a green neighborhood, the relatively adequate skills of residents in agriculture and gardening through work experience in their previous places of residence, and declaration of readiness to engage in volunteer activities, the conditions are favorable for the initiation of a community garden and for its bottom‐up management in collaboration with official institutions. The findings of the analysis have identified the strategic requirements in the areas of design and management of community gardens.
