Abstract
Director of Food Waste Innovation, Miranda Mirosa, recently participated in a panel discussion at the International Standards Organisation #ISOAnnualMeeting in Brisbane. The panel session, ‘Overcoming barriers to food loss and waste’, chaired by Raj Rajasekar, the Vice-Chair of the Codex Alimentarius Commission, covered ISO’s new standard, ISO/WD 20001, Food loss and waste management system. This standard is being designed to help organisations throughout the food chain reduce food loss and waste. Committees are already working globally on developing this standard which will provide a common framework for measurement and reporting and allow organisations to track their progress over time and identify areas where they can make improvements.
