Urban and peri-urban agriculture as green infrastructure (UP-AGrI) is a three-year research project examining the implications of urban agriculture on human well-being and urban sustainability. The project draws  on research in Tanzania and India. UP-AGrI is funded by the British Academy’s “Urban Infrastructures of Well-Being” programme, under the UK Government’s Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF).
