The Employee Engagement Toolkit is a powerful resource for food businesses. Jointly built by the Pacific Coast Food Waste Commitment and the U.S. Food Waste Pact, the toolkit is designed to inspire, educate , and empower employees to take action against food loss and waste in their workplace.

Food Forward NDCs is a guidance tool to support the enhancement and implementation of NDC ambitions for agriculture and food systems transformation. It will help countries to strengthen their NDCs by providing easy and accessible content to identify policy measures and practices and information about their climate change mitigation, adaptation and sustainable development benefits.

The global food system is driving the triple planetary crisis of climate change, nature and biodiversity loss, and pollution and waste while failing to address rising levels of hunger and malnutrition.
