The report Reducing Food Loss and Waste: Setting a Global Action Agenda identifies a three-pronged approach to halve food loss and waste by 2030. The report calls on governments, companies, farmers, consumers, and everyone in between to:
- “Target-Measure-Act”: Set food loss and waste reduction targets, measure to identify hotspots of food loss and waste and monitor progress over time, and take action on the hotspots;
- pursue a short “to-do” list per player in the food supply chain as “no regret” first steps toward taking action; and
- collaborate on 10 “scaling interventions” to ramp up deployment of Target-Measure-Act and the to-do list.
