Fishing in the city for food : a paradigmatic case of sustainability in urban blue space

• This article presents fishing in the city for food (FCF) as a trenchant example of urban ecology, and the ways in which urbandwellers use, interact with, and depend on urban blue spaces. Our literature review demonstrates how FCF is studied in a diversebody of scientific publications that rarely draw on each other. As such, FCF and its relevance for sustainable and just planning ofurban blue space remain relatively unknown. Using the literature review, a survey of FCF in European capitals, and examples fromFCF in Stockholm, we demonstrate how attention to FCF raises pertinent and interrelated questions about access to water, foodand recreation; human health; animal welfare and aquatic urban biodiversity.
