On 5 November 2026, FOLOU representatives Anna Sagrera Cots from BETA Technological Centre and Hector Barco Cobalea from Espigoladors attended the joint final event of the BREADCRUMB, ROSETTA and CATALYSE projects in Brussels.
Representing FOLOU, they participated in a policy roundtable to discuss the work carried out across the projects and their shared recommendations for addressing food loss and waste (FLW). The discussion built on the joint policy recommendations developed by FOLOU, ROSETTA and COMBINE, bringing together insights to support more effective policies on food loss and waste.
The event brought together representatives from research, policy and industry to discuss how project findings can contribute to more sustainable food systems. The programme included discussions on policy recommendations, food marketing standards, food safety and opportunities for future collaboration.
The event also provided an opportunity to connect with colleagues involved in the projects. Anna and Hector met fellow FOLOU partner Matteo Masotti from the University of Bologna (UNIBO), who is also involved in BREADCRUMB, as well as Anna Twarogowska from ILVO, BREADCRUMB’s coordinator and a member of the FOLOU Twinning Regions Programme.
The joint discussions build on the work of EU-funded projects to address food loss and waste across the food value chain.
