The Global Green Growth Forum – 3GF Summit

6 - 7 June
Copenhagen, Denmark

Topic

Launch of the Food Loss & Waste (FLW) Protocol’s FLW Accounting and Reporting Standard (FLW Standard) at the 3GF 2016 Summit in Copenhagen. The event will take place at 13.00-13.15 on June 6, 2016, and is titled, “What gets measured can be managed: Presentation of the 3GF partnership that has developed a global standard for measuring food loss and waste in a consistent, credible and transparent manner.”

Purpose

The objectives of the event are to:

Officially launch the FLW Standard into the public domain and encourage its widespread use and adoption among relevant parties. In turn, this will help to speed and scale up the world's response to the issue of food loss and waste.
Validate the FLW Standard by associating it with high-profile institutional and corporate partners that were involved in its development and/or that endorse it as a solution.
Raise the awareness of the 3GF platform as an incubator and accelerator for global public-private partnerships and solutions to critical sustainable development and climate change challenges, such as food loss and waste.
