Reducing food loss and waste is critical to solving the triple challenge of feeding a growing world population, supporting livelihoods along the agro-food supply chain and delivering on climate and other environmental goals.
However, efforts to reduce food loss and waste are often constrained by unclear targets, fragmented policy commitments and limited co-ordination across government entities. The lack of clear targets and the multiplication of policy initiatives make it difficult for food systems stakeholders to engage and commit.
This session will discuss a way forward, based on insights from the OECD’s comprehensive review of the food loss and waste policy landscape, drawing on data from 42 national ministries and the European Commission. This review is the first systematic global stocktake of food loss and waste policies.
Panellists will discuss how insights from the report can be used to accelerate the implementation of more effective evidence-based and context-specific food loss and waste policies. This session will focus specifically on challenges related to data collection and policy evaluation.
