Public participation approaches in shaping Colombian food policies by Conejero, Elena García, Nilgen, Marco

“…While our planned research in Colombia aims to contribute to a more thorough understanding of the dynamics within citizens’ juries, a key component at the foundation of our project is, of course, to understand the country’s history of implementing bottom-up public participation processes, particularly in the context of food-system policies. …”
