Almost 60 million children in Africa do not have enough food while across the
continent, hunger contributes to 45% of childhood deaths, according to a study
by the African Child Policy Forum. Furthermore, nine out of 10 children are not meeting the criteria for a minimum acceptable diet as outlined by the World Health Organization. Along with this our team has learnt many other truths of importance of saving food. Throughout this project our team has faced many challenges and has overcome them all. Through continuous improvement and research, we have gained an impressive amount of knowledge on saving food, how the industry works and efficient ways to combat food wastage. During this project we have interviewed a local shop manager, an administration head and also a climate change expert on their views on impact, causes and effects of food wastage. All of our team members now have a deep understanding of the importance of saving food. We have also introduced various changes in our lives to minimize food wastage at our household levels. We have Also been successful in changing the perspective of others and in helping them understand the drastic effects of food wastage. In conclusion I would like to say that this has been a truly wondrous and informative experience. Our team has truly worked hard and is very proud of the outcome.
