Summary
Aligned with the priorities of the European Green Deal, and the Farm-to- Fork strategy, combating food waste stands as a cornerstone for fostering a fair, healthy and environmentally friendly food system. WASTEWISE has been conceived to design realistic pathways of food waste prevention and reduction to deliver co-benefits for climate change mitigation , biodiversity and circularity WASTEWISE employs a holistic, multi-actor approach across the food supply chain, to measure environmental impact of food waste prevention and reduction propose evident-based measures and drive systemic shifts for sustainable food consumption, poverty alleviation, and environmental sustainability in prioritized supply chains.
The ambition of WASTEWISE is to deepen the existing knowledge concerning the real extent of environmental impacts that can be achieved through food waste prevention and reduction efforts, and how they can accelerate the progress towards EU’s climate targets. In doing so, WASTEWISE will analyse food waste data, develop reliable methods to assess environmental impacts, and conduct policy analysis, to inform evidence-based and realistic scenarios for food waste prevention and reduction. By these evidence-based insights and pragmatic scenarios, WASTEWISE equips policy makers with key information and recommendation and the instruments to accelerate progress towards climate targets.
The WASTEWISE consortium comprises all relevant scientific and technical expertise spanning FW quantification, environmental impact assessment, innovation and policy advice. Supported by stakeholders through Multi-Actors Platforms (ministries, companies, associations, NGOs), it ensures inclusive engagement and dissemination of results, fostering broad uptake across cultural and socio-economic contexts.
