Evaluation of Framework for Action Pilots

franka.paetzke — Tue, 11 Jun 2019 14:11:43 +0000

Report

One aspect of REFRESH aimed to design and pilot food waste voluntary agreements (VAs) across EU member states and subsequently assess their potential for wider adoption. In the context of REFRESH, a piloted VA is described as a “Framework for Action” (FA). In total, four countries across Europe piloted FAs: Netherlands, Spain, Germany and Hungary. In this report the authors evaluate the piloted FAs to assess whether they had been successful, show their potential impact and highlight the circumstances in which they are likely to be more successful if replicated.

Gaining insight in possible actions to reduce food waste by developing a prototype monitoring tool and theoretical pilots

franka.paetzke — Thu, 06 Jun 2019 11:21:07 +0000

Report

A Decision Support System (DSS) prototype monitoring tool, focused to facilitate effective decision-making leading to actions that will prevent and valorize waste, has been developed and tested. This involved building the prototype monitoring tool (software) to register food waste data and providing the right control information with respect to food waste prevention.

Bouwen aan Partnerschappen, Werken aan Verandering: Een vrijwillige aanpak om voedselverspilling te voorkomen

SNA — Tue, 09 Apr 2019 08:26:18 +0000

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.
