The ReS-Food project (Reducing Food Waste and Rescuing Surplus Food Supplies), funded by the Erasmus+ EU programme, was strategically developed to support the reduction of food waste in the HORECA sector and supermarkets by providing targeted educational materials. Running from 1 November 2022 to 31 October 2024, the project aims to empower businesses with the knowledge and resources needed to manage surplus food effectively.
Led by UNIVERZITET U NOVOM SADU (Serbia) and implemented in collaboration with five partners from five EU countries, the project has delivered several key outputs:
- A State Analysis Assessment Report, based on a Europe-wide online survey and expert interviews in the fields of environmental and food security
- A comprehensive Toolbox
- A Methodological Framework
- A Self-Assessment Tool
- An Online Dual Training Course in food management, tailored for both food waste generators and humanitarian organisations
All project results are available on the official website in English, Greek, Croatian, Hungarian, and Serbian, accessible via the link provided on the left-hand side of the platform.
