Growing urban populations stress cities globally, with climate change intensifying these pressures and social inequalities, particularly for women. However, urban and peri-urban agriculture (UPA) offers a potential solution. This thesis examines the French UPA project Fleurs d’Halage, managed by Halage Association, to explore its approach to UPA and social integration through a gendered lens. Using a mixed-method approach, the study analyses reports, observations, and an interview with the Head of Production and Coordinator of the project. Results reveal Fleurs d’Halage’s success in promoting social integration for women through urban horticulture. However, challenges that women face in UPA are also identified. Additionally, the study also reveals how the project’s activities contribute to climate justice in the Seine-Saint-Denis department. The thesis concludes by highlighting the role of UPA in urban sustainability while emphasizing the systemic challenges that women face and the need for targeted actions towards female empowerment in the sector.
