Tunisia develops food waste strategy
Tunisia is working on developing a national strategy and an action plan to combat food waste, including organizing workshops by the National Institute for Consumption to accelerate the establishment of the fundamental pillars of this initiative. Food waste each year leads to the loss or disposal of millions of tons of food, causing significant economic and environmental losses, and further depletes natural resources such as water, land, and energy. The value of wasted food is estimated at 570 million dinars annually, with losses amounting to approximately 100 million dinars each year from just bread that is discarded. These efforts are part of broader awareness-raising initiatives and the unification of stakeholders to address this phenomenon, which threatens food security and the national economy.
