Multi-actor design of low-waste food value chains through the demonstration of innovative solutions to reduce food loss and waste

Project description

Evaluating selected innovations for food waste reduction in the EU

Reducing food loss and waste is a significant priority for the EU. To adequately address the issue, the EU-funded LOWINFOOD project will test the effectiveness of selected innovative solutions following a method that engages actors along the entire food value chain. The main goal of the project is to co-design low-waste value chains in the fruit and vegetable, baked goods and fish sectors, including at-home and out-of-home consumption. The project will validate and demonstrate a set of technological, social and organisational solutions, and evaluate the impact of these innovations in reducing food waste and improving the socioeconomic and environmental performance of the value chains. The LOWINFOOD consortium is made up of universities, research institutions, startups, foundations, associations and companies related to the food sector.
