This research investigated whether and how emerging evidence from capital cities and larger cities of the developing world of a growing simultaneous double burden of malnutrition (diseases of both under-nutrition e.g. stunting or wasting, and those of over-nutrition e.g. obesity, diabetes, heart disease) had validity in the context of smaller but rapidly developing cities, and assessed a potential ameliorative role for urban agriculture (UA).
