OUR OBJECTIVES Facebook Linkedin Some of our objectives are: To assess the current food waste management practices in selected municipalities and SMEs in the HORECA sector To compare the assessment results above with the best practices in the relevant fields To develop a concrete set of Circularity Indicators that will be used to describe both the current and the future description \u2013 monitoring of food waste management To assess the gap between the baseline assessment and the requirements posed by the EU Circular Economy Action Plan using the Circularity Indicators ABOUT ADVANCE Project Goal In view of the above challenges, the project aims to create a strategic educational, training, and awareness alliance aiming to achieve the ambitious target regarding food waste, between Municipalities and Small and Medium Enterprises so that both parties can implement smoothly and effectively the shift towards Circular Economy practices (including EU Directives targets, national laws, and regulations) contributing to the protection of public health and the environment, the creation of environmental opportunities and the improvement of EU citizens&#8217; quality of life. The 5 results of this project: Baseline assessment (PR1) of the current food waste management practices in Municipalities and HORECA SMEs \u2013 the baseline assessment will also include benchmarking to existing best practices in EU. Gap Analysis methodology and tool (PR2) between current and required, according to the EU targets, waste management practices relevant to food waste. Development of a Roadmap (PR3) \u2013 Design and development of a step-by-step methodological framework for implementing the food waste targets. ADVANCE Course (PR4) \u2013 Creation of a training material broken down into certain learning modules for waste management adopted to the needs of target group.
