The Public Authority for Food and Nutrition is urging greater public awareness and responsible consumption to reduce food loss and waste, emphasizing that food conservation is a shared responsibility.
Acting Director General Abeer Al-Ramah made these remarks during an awareness event at The Avenues Mall on Tuesday, marking the International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste, observed annually on September 29.
According to Al-Ramah, reducing food waste can start with simple daily practices: buying appropriate quantities, storing food properly, and using leftovers instead of discarding them. She highlighted that food requires significant effort and resources across several stages before reaching consumers, making its preservation essential to responsible consumption.
Al-Ramah called on the public to help promote a culture of reducing food waste, noting that conserving food supports the protection of national resources and sustainability.
