Advocating for Policy Change
In 2019, GFN began a partnership with the Harvard Law School Food Law and Policy Clinic
(FLPC) to create The Global Food Donation Policy Atlas. The goal was to address the most
pressing legal questions and barriers to food waste reduction and food donation around the
world. During that time, GFN and FLPC conducted research on food loss and waste policies
and trends in 25 countries. We have seen a steady increase in food waste or food donation
policies during this time.
In particular: six countries enacted new national food loss and waste or food donation
policies, five countries enacted new or enhanced liability protections, and five countries
implemented food safety for donation policies.
