Technical Platform on the Measurement and Reduction of Food Loss and Waste

Course Lost Harvest and Wasted food (fellowship opportunity)

Wageningen (Netherlands), 14/09/2015 - 25/09/2015

Large contrasts exist in how we manage the food we have available. While in parts of our societies there is a shortage of food, in the urban and wealthier communities, good food is thrown away only because it is beyond its sell-by date. Optimising the ‘farm to fork’ chain can contribute significantly to food security.

The Wageningen UR Centre for Development Innovation offers a new course for people moved by active interest and professional experience in this field. Participants should be proficient in English, and have at least a BSc degree or an equivalent academic qualification.
