520    This report marks the first stage of AFSUN's goal of 
       expanding knowledge about urban food systems and 
       experiences of household food insecurity in secondary 
       African cities. It contributes to an understanding of 
       poverty and sustainability in Mzuzu, Malawi, through the 
       lens of household food security. The focus on food as an 
       urban issue not only speaks to the development challenges 
       presented by urbanization, but it also brings a fresh 
       perspective to debates about food security in Malawi. The 
       urban setting highlights the changing food system in 
       Malawi where people in rural and urban areas are 
       increasingly reliant on cash income to buy food. The 
       report's key findings include that the most vulnerable 
       households are those without a formal wage income, 
       households headed by older people, especially older women,
       and households that are not able to produce food in the 
       rural areas. The research also shows that the food system 
       is dynamic and diverse, with households accessing food 
       from a variety of formal and informal food sources and 
       relying on rural-urban linkages for urban survival. Urban 
       and rural agriculture are important features of the food 
       system, but there is little evidence that these are the 
       "self-help" responses to poverty that advocates for urban 
       agriculture in Africa sometimes imply.
