Key Definitions
§ Food Loss: decrease in quantity or quality of food.
§ Food waste: removal from the Food Supply Chain of food which is fit for consumption, or which has spoiled or expired, mainly due to§ economic behaviour, § poor stock management or § neglect.

Food security
Food security exists “when all people at all times have access to sufficient, safe, nutritious food to maintain a healthy and active life”.
World Food Summit, 1996

Pillars of food security
§ Food availability: sufficient quantities of food available on a consistent basis
§ Food access: having sufficient resources to obtain appropriate foods for a nutritious diet
§ Food use: appropriate use based on knowledge of basic nutrition and care, as well as adequate water and sanitation
§ Stability of the above

Literature review § Estimated that over half of the municipal waste contains food in Qatar
(The Peninsula, 2013)§ No previous in depth studies conducted on consumer food waste in
Qatar.
In literature, causes of food waste at the demand side, included issues related to e.g.:
§ Purchase and storage § Packaging§ Planning§ Labelling§ Preparation and cooking of food § Portion and plate size § Consumer views, habits, values and practices § Lack of awareness and undervaluation of food§ Socio-economic factors

Workshop Methodology
1. Discussion in groups2. Using post-its to
denote causes of food waste
3. Prioritising elicited causes
4. Identifying causes under the PESTLE categorisation

§ Waste in food supply chains is a complex problem§ Multiple stakeholders and different worldviews§ Environmental conditions§ Policies around food waste attitudes, behaviour and
practices§ Future work
§ Validation of the causes and interrelations among them§ Development of a Bayesian Causal Map for policy
analysis§ Risk assessment of particular policies on food supply
chains
