Food Loss and Waste Reduction in the Near East and North Africa

Good practices

Good FLW reduction and prevention practices are needed at all stages of the food supply chain and among all actors in the agrifood system. Weak technological, managerial, and business capacities are often cited as causes of FLW and constraints to reduction. Among consumers, greater awareness and food waste education can influence behaviours that prevent waste. Encouraging better practices is a matter of capacity development, as well as knowledge and experience exchange, and incentivizing actors across the agrifood system to take action.
