This is a recording of the REFRESH webinar that took place on 9 April 2019. It provided insights into opportunities and approaches for increasing the value of food waste and by-products: What are the opportunities available at different parts of the supply chain to use unavoidable food waste and food side streams? What are the opportunities and barriers presented by policy? How can food streams be best assessed for increasing their value? What can we learn from existing case studies?
Vrijwillige Samenwerkingsverbanden werpen hun vruchten af om voedselverspilling te voorkomen. Door samenwerking kunnen gezamenlijke doelen worden bereikt, worden bedrijven geprikkeld tot samenwerking en kan verandering op een zo efficiënt en effectief mogelijke manier worden bereikt. REFRESH heeft op basis van de eigen succesvolle implementatie van 5 nationale vrijwillige samenwerkingsverbanden in Nederland, Duitsland, Spanje, Hongarije en China, en het Britse voorbeeld van "Courtauld 2025", een blauwdruk voor succes opgesteld.
Eine freiwillige Vereinbarung ist eine bewährte Methode zur Bekämpfung von Lebensmittelabfällen. Durch die Zusammenarbeit zur Erreichung gemeinsamer Ziele können Unternehmen auf die effizienteste und effektivste Weise Veränderungen bewirken. Anhand praktischer Beispiele aus den nationalen REFRESH-Programmen sowie des Erfolgs von WRAP in Großbritannien u.a. mit Courtauld 2025, beschreibt dieser Leitfaden die notwendigen Schritte für den Abschluss erfolgreicher freiwilliger Vereinbarungen.
Vier Jahre gemeinsame Arbeit: Trotz des bevorstehenden offiziellen Endes des EU-Forschungsprojekts REFRESH im Juni 2019 war die Abschlusssitzung der Mitglieder des Deutschen REFRESH-Lenkungsausschusses von einer entspannten, vertrauensvollen Atmosphäre und einem optimistischen Blick in die Zukunft geprägt.
Four years of common work - despite the imminent official end of the EU research project REFRESH in June 2019, the final meeting of the members of the German REFRESH Steering Committee was characterized by a relaxed, trusting atmosphere and an optimistic view into the future.
A voluntary agreement is a proven method for tackling food waste. By working together to achieve collective goals, organisations can collaborate and deliver change in the most efficient, effective way. Using practical examples from the REFRESH national programs, as well as WRAP’s UK success including Courtauld 2025, this guide outlines the steps necessary for building successful voluntary agreements.
Multiple methods to measure household food waste have been proposed, but little is known about their validity. In this study, five methods are compared empirically: general survey questions, diaries, photo coding, kitchen caddies, and weekly survey.
Is it possible to assess the amount of food wasted by coding photographs of household food waste? This study examines the validity of this measurement method and finds that the method appears promising for application in studies examining household food waste levels.
Bringing together food waste experts from across Europe, the REFRESH Community of Experts (CoE) has launched a series of four webinars on 'Tackling Food Waste Across the Supply Chain'. The series demonstrates how policy makers, manufacturers, retailers, distributors, municipalities and many more organisations involved in the food supply chain can effectively address food waste. This month-long webinar series, hosted from 9 April to 2 May 2019, includes expert speakers from ten institutions. The webinars offer an opportunity to gain insights from case studies, ask questions of the speakers and get signposts to further information.
This REFRESH webinar provided insights into drivers and interventions to tackle food waste at home. It is part of a series of four webinars on 'Tackling Food Waste Across the Supply Chain', launched by the REFRESH Community of Experts (CoE). The series demonstrates how policy makers, manufacturers, retailers, distributors, municipalities and many more organisations involved in the food supply chain can effectively address food waste.
