| dc.description | Rising population growth and increasing urbanization among developing countries is shedding light on the challenges and potential linkages that exist between rural and urban food systems. Pakistan is no exception, especially with its Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) reaching a population of close to seven million and experiencing an urbanization rate of over 70 percent from 2005 to 2015 alone. These population trends and shifts translate into an increased need to access affordable, nutritious and safe food in urban centers, which helps explain why middle and lower-income segments of the Pakistani population have come to rely on street food, given its accessibility, variety and lower prices in comparison to formal establishments. Beyond its economic importance, street and market food in Pakistan has also acquired a cultural importance. | |
