Considering the food system crisis in Brazil as problem affecting the right to the city, the study investigated which role the vertical urban agriculture could represent to right to food in Brazil. The analysis was conducted by an inductive method with a qualitative approach for the literature review, documental research, and investigation of samples (Japan, Singapore, Germany, the United States of America, and Brazil). It was possible to find out the vertical urban agriculture acting with cons (when it is appropriated as a profitable system with restricted access products) and pros (occupying vacant urban land, and being produced by/supporting poor families). The results updated the map of urban vertical agriculture (now including Brazil) and the study can encourage urban public policies for the right to food – consequently, promoting the right to the city – using a low-tech and low cost of implementation and maintenance food system.
