The dependence on imported food and fuel today is an acute urban challenge. Automobility altered the dynamics of urban living in a vicious cycle of producing urban sprawl, causing major environmental damage, and contributing to atomized living and loosening of community ties. The 15-minute City (15mC) is an alternative to the suburbanization model that seeks to generate hyper proximity by optimizing accessibility to services. This project will Hype Agriculture and Transit (HAT) in the 15mC paradigm exploring the potentials of urban agriculture, placemaking and green city visions combined with Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) as leitmotif for driving urban transitions towards green Proximity Oriented Developments (PODs). Hyping implies promoting or publicizing intensively urban (and peri-urban) agriculture supported by active and shared mobilities. The HAT project will link academic research with the business sector (for profit and non-profit organizations) to encourage, drive, and catalyze urban transitions towards with top-bottom green 15mC city planning policy and bottom-up food-related placemaking initiatives. It will produce empirical evidence and design knowledge on urban agriculture and TODs in a context of 15mC and develop viable business models for green PODs seeking to decrease the need to import food and fuel, as well as the dependence on the automobile.
