Objectifs d'apprentissage
The course aims to raise awareness and build capacities for effective food waste prevention at different stages of the food chain, including processing and manufacturing, retail, restaurants and other food services, as well as households.
The course is especially geared towards learners from emerging economies, such as China, Brazil, South Africa, and India, where consumption habits are quickly changing and setting up food waste prevention systems can have a great impact in the short and long run.
After completing the course, you will be able to:
- Explain how much food is wasted every year and the impact it has on people, the environment, and the economy.
- Define the role you and other stakeholders play in food waste prevention.
- Identify ways to measure and account for food waste at various stages of the food chain.
- Describe effective measures to prevent food waste throughout the food chain.
- Outline measures to minimise food waste wherever prevention is not possible.
By spreading knowledge on how to prevent food waste, the course contributes to achieving Sustainable Development Goal 12.3: Halve food waste by 50% by 2030.
