ACR+ organized the first thematic session between pilots and Associated Regions. These sessions will continue to take place on a monthly basis to facilitate technical exchange of valuable information related to the implementation of the food waste reduction solutions proposed by FOODRUS. They are meant to empower the replication process at territorial level across the 8 participating Associated Regions of the project. These meetings are also useful for pilots to collect feedback and to create cross-territorial synergies for food waste reduction actions. Each monthly session will see a presentation by one of the pilots with time allocated for Q&A and further discussion.
