|a Reliance on imports augments vulnerability to exogenous shocks that threaten food
security. The study upon which this paper is based investigated challenges and
opportunities for developing local food production systems in Sint Maarten, to build resilience
and diversify its economy. We applied mixed methods; interviews, expert meetings, and
participatory action research. After a first analytical cycle, we validated and adapted our
initial explanatory model, to subsequently carry out the main investigation. We found
systems interacting within a context lacking capacity and resources, creating negative
feedback effects. We propose solutions that contribute to establishing a sound
framework for decision-making and creating synergies within existing initiatives or through
incorporating external resources. |
