Food loss and waste in times of COVID-19 [On-demand webinar]

Looking from a food loss and waste perspective, this on-demand webinar describes the effect COVID-19 has had on both our supply chains as well as on consumer behaviour, and highlights several potential solutions that could make our food system more sustainable and resilient.

The current COVID-19 pandemic has had a severe impact on our daily lives. Strict social distancing measures were implemented, and many people stay and work from home as much as possible. It also has a huge impact on our global food system, with demand and supply suddenly being disrupted.
