Food waste is a major environmental and economic issue. This Expo session tackles it head-on, empowering local authorities with actionable strategies. Our diverse panel will explore how to:

  • Shift consumer behaviour through education and tackling date label confusion.
  • Support local food systems with initiatives like community gardens and producer partnerships.
  • Manage unavoidable waste through composting, anaerobic digestion, and exploring renewable energy potential.

Collaboration is key! We'll discuss partnerships with food businesses, charities, and community groups. This session is ideal for understanding the knowledge and resources to make a real difference in food waste reduction.
