WASTELESS (Waste Quantification Solutions to Limit Environmental Stress) is an applied research project, which aims to measure and monitor food losses and waste in the EU.

The WASTELESS project will:

• develop and test a mix of innovative tools and methodologies for Food Loss and Waste (FLW) measurement and monitoring,
• recommend a harmonised methodological Framework for FLW quantification,
• develop a decision support systemic toolbox targeting all food value chain stakeholders,
• carry out research activities concerning innovative processes and streams to make full use of unavoidable FLW.

In the coming weeks, WASTELESS will host a series of interactive workshops showcasing the innovative tools developed within the project to tackle FLW across the entire value chain.

Each session will feature:

• A live presentation by the tool developers
• Real-world insights from stakeholders already testing the tools
• Interactive Q&A and hands-on exercises
• The chance to share your feedback on usability and applicability

This session will focus on Computer vision-based image analysis for household food decay detection (by HACETTEPPE) - Explore early-stage technology that uses image analysis to measure food decay based on changes in colour.

It will take place online at 10:00 - 11:30 CET on 3 November. There is no charge for attending but you do need to register!
