Description

In Australia food waste is a $36.6 billion a year challenge, while 1 in 5 people suffer from food insecurity. Australia produces 7.6 million tonnes of food waste per year, which represents 312kg of food waste per person per year. With its pledge to achieve United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 12.3, Australia has committed to halving food waste by 2030.

The Food Waste Policy Workshop aimed to identify the most effective and efficient policy interventions required to meet this target, and what evidence from research was required to support implementation of these policies.
