In a circular economy for food (Ref @WorldResources): 1. Food is produced in ways that regenerate nature. 2. Food is not lost or wasted 3. Commonly wasted resources are used productively #CircularEconomy endorsement wordwide would enable fast achievement of #SDGs, esp. #SDG2! – at Rwanda

Pleased to co-chair, with @EnvironmentRw's DG Kwitonda, the multistakeholder platform for circular food systems for Rwanda program. On global scale, studies have shown that about 30% of food is lost or wasted. Yet, 800 million people (about 10%) don't have enough to eat! 1/2 – at Rwanda

So what exactly does #CircularEconomy business look like? We heard from SMEs like @EzaNezaRwanda on hydroponic strawberry farming that minimises inputs eg water, and businesses turning food waste into compost or a base to farm bugs 🐛 as protein for animal feed. Amazing ♻️ ideas!
