Food service cohort session: Exploring food waste solutions
Food waste solutions are good for people and the planet, yet 38% of all food in the U.S. goes uneaten. During this interactive session, we will get real about challenges leading to wasted food in a hospital setting and identify solutions that are having most impact.
Discussion questions:
- What are your biggest challenges to addressing wasted food?
- What food waste solutions has your organization used, and what were the results?
- What would help you advance your food waste solutions work?
