Do you know that ...?

"(...) The United Nations General Assembly designated 29 September

as the International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste (IDAFLW).

The day is co-convened by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and

the day's events are led jointly by the two organisations. The goal is to raise

awareness to the importance of the problem and its possible solutions at

all levels, and to promote global efforts and collective action towards

meeting the Sustainable Development Goal Target 12.3, which targets

to halve per capita global food waste at the retail and consumer level

by 2030, and reduce food losses along the food production and

supply chains. (...)
The sixth International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste
(IDAFLW) will be observed on Monday, 29 September 2025.
This year’s theme calls for expanding and strengthening stakeholder
efforts to reduce food loss and waste, as a critical element of securing
a sustainable food future for all.

There are many ways to act right now. Spark conversations about the urgent need for understanding, non-violence, and disarmament. Volunteer in your community, listen to voices different from your own, challenge discriminatory language in your workplace, report bullying both online and off-line, and take the time to verify facts before you post on social media.
