The 15-Minute City

Carlos Moreno reminds us that a livable city isn’t just about transport or infrastructure. It’s a city where everything you need – including food – is 15 minutes from home. Neighborhood markets. Food shops. Spaces where community gathers around food. Not anonymous supermarkets you can only reach by car.

For Movimento Metropolitano, this is essential: food is the first element of urban quality of life. It’s democracy, culture, social connection. A 15-minute city is a city where the food system becomes local again, accessible, part of the neighborhood’s daily life. This book tells us that another model of city is possible. And it passes through how we eat.
