Abstract
The European Union is committed via legally binding targets to reduce per capita food waste at the retail and consumption stage. This requires realising profound behavioural change in diverse political and cultural contexts. Work of food waste experts systematically analysing implemented reduction interventions revealed important insights and gaps that need to be jointly addressed by scientists, policymakers and practitioners.
期刊介绍:
Food Policy is a multidisciplinary journal publishing original research and novel evidence on issues in the formulation, implementation, and evaluation of policies for the food sector in developing, transition, and advanced economies.
Our main focus is on the economic and social aspect of food policy, and we prioritize empirical studies informing international food policy debates. Provided that articles make a clear and explicit contribution to food policy debates of international interest, we consider papers from any of the social sciences. Papers from other disciplines (e.g., law) will be considered only if they provide a key policy contribution, and are written in a style which is accessible to a social science readership.
