The Project has generated opportunities of trainings and workshops on how packaging could play a strategic role for the reduction of food waste, and during its final phase, experts are going to focus on the design of a packaging center to build a network of packaging advisers as a cooperation tool.

Mr. Alberto Vacchi declared:

“I am very proud that this Project is part of IMA’s CSR. Thanks to FAO and ITC, it was possible to identify a topic of such great importance for the poorest areas of the world, as well as for food and environmental policies. I would like to invite more donors from our sector to contribute to this kind of Project through international institutional organizations, to facilitate the concentration of funds and the identification of objectives that involve the public sector, and of course people of the rural world“.
