On 19 December, 2019, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) designated 29 September as the International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste (IDAFLW), recognizing that the observance of an IDAFLW would contribute significantly to raising awareness of the importance of the problem and its possible solutions at all levels and to promote global efforts and collective action towards meeting SDG target 12.3. FAO and UN Environment will collaborate in facilitating the observance of the Day.
Please stay tuned.
