The project´s main goal is to address existing research gaps and will use its outcomes to deliver and advance innovations helping actors to engage more effectively in food waste prevention and reduction activities. In short, it is a European project that integrates EU and food chain actors to enhance contingency knowledge and produce new effective instruments for facilitating successful transitions towards minimising FLW.

Foster change in social norms and behaviours, by embedding the new evidence and understanding gained on FLW-related social norms and behaviours. - Manage the project’s innovation upscaling effectively, by a strategy for the exploitation of the project results and implementing responsible innovation management practices that guide the project to exploitable and sustainable outcomes.
