Rethinking food waste

ToNoWaste: The scope of this project is to develop a holistic assessment for food waste prevention.

The EU project ToNoWaste aims to assess the impact of food waste in Europe in order to contribute to the reduction of food waste.

Joint collection of solutions and measures to prevent and reduce food waste

This survey was created in the course of the EU project ToNoWaste, which aims to identify pilot projects within the ToNoWaste project. It is completely voluntary and anonymous.

To include the perspective of a broad spectrum of experts on future solutions, this Delphi survey will be filled by experts in the field of Food Systems in Austria, Spain, Sweden and Greece.

The results from this survey will allow us to identify good practices and relevant impact categories from different perspectives in an early phase of the ToNoWaste project (March to April 2023). The results will be analyzed and used for a second round of survey.

We are very grateful if you consider taking some of your time (around 30 minutes) to help us in the project.

A draft can be saved at any time to continue answering later. This survey will be online from the 8th March until the 7th of April 2023.

There are three main sections to the survey:

Your opinion on some examples of potential pilot-projects along the whole value chain based on our three project-workshops that took place between December 2022 and February 2023
Your suggestions for a pilot-project that either exists already or that should be implemented
Evaluation of three sets of science-based indicators to assess the environmental, social and economic impact of various initiatives or pilot project (yours or any other) for food waste reduction and prevention

You have the possibility to choose English and German languages. The Spanish, Swedish and Greek language will be available soon.

The project, "Towards a new zero food waste mindset based on a holistic assessment (ToNoWaste)," will involve 21 institutions from seven countries working together, taking an interdisciplinary approach. Not only will agronomic, economic, environmental and business model challenges be considered, but other key areas such as law and social innovation to prevent social inequalities will also be addressed.

ToNoWaste develops scientific and evidence-based assessment tools for market actors and provides validated data to make better food production and consumption decisions for sustainable development. The research starts by analyzing what a "best decision" can mean in terms of food waste prevention and reduction in fresh food value chains.

Among other things, ITA is leading work package 5 on the validation of assessment tools in four pilot projects in Spain, Austria, Sweden and Greece.
