Pilot actions to reduce food waste in Central Europe
Pilot actions are experiments to try out new methods to reduce and manage food waste. The learnings from the pilot actions will be included in the guidelines, recommendations and training materials. Within this STREFOWA project 16 pilot actions for relevant sectors of urban food chain are implemented for: production of food, retail preparation of food, food donation and collection and treatment. 13 of those 16 pilot actions deal with reduction of food waste and 3 are 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, Italy)
