Who we are?
The ‘LIFE – FOODPRINT’ project addresses the environmental problem of food loss or waste. The project aims to bridge the gap between awareness and behaviour of key stakeholders about the environmental problem of food waste in Cyprus. Food waste is one of the biggest problems when it comes to sustainable consumption and waste management, therefore raising awareness will contribute in changing the perceptions and fostering the adoption of environmentally friendly behaviours and practices among the targeted audiences. The project is co-funded by the LIFE Programme of the European Union.
