Food loss and waste has indeed become an issue of great public concern. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development reflects the increased global awareness of the problem. Unfortunately, countries in the Middle East waste 1.3 billion tons of food worth more than a trillion dollars every year. Not to mention the negative impact of food waste on environment and its contribution to climate change.
Join us to discuss responsible food consumption and tips on how to reduce food waste at home and best practices to prepare healthy and waste free meals during Ramadan and every day.
