The event will bring together participants from its extensive stakeholder platform of over 200 members including leading organizations and experts on food waste prevention and innovation across Europe. The final event will highlight the findings and work of the four year project and reveal the next steps as the topic of food waste has recently risen across several national and international political agendas. The conference is thus an opportunity to discuss the work plan for a European Circular Economy, the Champions 12.3 Coalition and to announce the start of the REFRESH project. The speakers, participants and program can be viewed online.

While originally planned for March 31, the event is now postponed due to the terrible terror attacks in Brussels. A new date will be announced soon, with the conference most likely taking place between mid-May and June 2016.
