to be achieved?<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Around 2.8 million tons of food waste are produced in the food industry and households in Switzerland every year. From the field to the plate, valuable resources are wasted and the environment is unnecessarily polluted. SDG 12.3 and the Federal Council&#8217;s national action plan therefore aim to halve food waste by 2030.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of the causes of food waste can only be tackled collaboratively from field to fork. There is a basic consensus that coordinated strategies and measures are needed &#8211; but which ones, by whom, and how much? In addition, the reduction of food waste is frequently called for in the media &#8211; which reinforces the growing social impact. Against this backdrop, the industry initiative <a href=\"https:\/\/www.united-against-waste.ch\/\">United Against Waste<\/a> (UAW) was launched in 2013 by forward-looking companies in the food service industry.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"tag\">OUR SOLUTION APPROACH<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong><strong>Creating creative space for an innovative network<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mit UAW besteht ein Verein, der das Ziel verfolgt, Lebensmittelabfall entlang der gesamten Lieferkette zu halbieren.
