International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste

ABOUT THE EVENT:

The United Nations General Assembly, on December 19, 2019, designated September 29 as the 'International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste', with the intention to raise “awareness of the importance of the problem and its possible solutions at all levels, and to promote global efforts and collective action towards meeting SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production).”

Through this special initiative, it is our earnest desire to:

• Encourage corporate citizenship towards food wastage.
• Raise consciousness towards sustainable production and consumption patterns.
• Deliberate strategies to build resilient, inclusive, and sustainable food systems.
• Enable and catalyse deliberate action to reduce food loss and waste.

Every voice can have an impact. We must strive to come up with innovative ways to address food wastage and loss. We welcome everyone to participate in a spirited, solution-oriented conversation on food systems around the world.

IOD Foundation calls on the public, private, business and corporate sectors to raise awareness on food loss and wastage.
