Pilot actions to reduce food waste in Central Europe
Pilot actions are little experiments to try out new methods to reduce and manage food waste. The learnings from the pilot actions will be put into guidelines, recommendations and training materials open available here on www.reducefoodwaste.eu within the next years. We will conduct in total 16 pilot actions for relevant sectors of urban food chain: production of food,retail preparation of food, food donation and collection and treatment. 13 of those 16 pilot actions will be on reduction of food waste and 3 on management of food waste. The pilot actions are located in the 5 participating countries: Austria, Hungary, Poland, Italy and the Czech Republic.
Our Pilot actions experiment to:
- raise awareness in schools and amongst consumers (Austria, Czech Republic, Italy)
- prevent food waste through donations and re-use (Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, Italy, Austria)
- optimize separate collection of food waste (Poland, Austria)
