SUMMARY:Webinar: Local Policies and Best Practices for Food Waste Reduction
DESCRIPTION:The Harvard Law School Food Law and Policy Clinic (FLPC)\, in collaboration with the Vermont Law and Graduate School’s Center for Agriculture and Food Systems\, is launching a brand new toolkit! \n“Waste Less\, Feed More: A Local Food Waste Policy Toolkit” explores how local governments can strategize\, collaborate\, and legislate policies to reduce food waste. Of all things that people in the United States throw away\, food is the most common material that we send to landfills. 24% of the solid waste in the United States is food waste\, and local governments\, including both cities and counties\, are well-positioned to facilitate solutions. \nThe FLPC Toolkit outlines how local governments across the United States have utilized their legal authority and their resources to mandate\, promote\, and support efforts to keep good food from getting discarded. For each type of policy\, the Toolkit describes the relevant federal and state policy background\, offers a number of best practices\, and highlights a local government as a best practices example. \nThe Toolkit also provides both sample policy language and references to model policies as resources for local governments to utilize in exploring and adopting food waste reduction policies. \nThis webinar will not just provide an overview of this new FLPC resource but will also host a panel of local government stakeholders and experts discussing how local food waste policies are planned\, shaped\, and implemented. Don’t miss this informative webinar! \nFLPC’s newest resource for local food waste reduction policies can be found here: https://chlpi.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/FLPC-Local-Food-Waste-Policy-Toolkit.pdf \nRegister: https://harvard.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_sdL7Uw5DS8yIHFFX3VsBqg#/registration

SUMMARY:State Medicaid Program Requirements for Community Reinvestment
DESCRIPTION:Medicaid community reinvestment requirements enable states to require or incentivize state contractors to reinvest in the communities they serve. State laws\, waivers\, and contracts that include community reinvestment provisions have specified reinvestments (using percentage of profits and/or performance measures) in community initiatives that align with the state’s key priorities\, e.g.\, improving healthy food access. These programs are anticipated to improve community health and wealth\, not just the health and wealth of Medicaid enrollees. \nOn January 14\, 2025\, join the UCSF Social Interventions Research & Evaluation Network (SIREN) and the Center for Health Law & Policy Innovation of Harvard Law School to learn more about these innovative approaches and planned evaluations from state Medicaid leaders and other population health research experts. \nThe target audience for this webinar includes health care providers\, social care providers\, health policy practitioners\, policymakers\, and researchers. \nPanelists: \n\nDana Flannery\, Medicaid Director\, New Mexico Human Services Department\nElizabeth Hertel\, MBA\, Director\, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services\nEmma Sandoe\, PhD\, MPH\, Medicaid Director\, Oregon Health Authority\n\nDiscussant: Craig Pollack\, MD\, MHS\, Department of Health Policy and Management\, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Johns Hopkins School of Nursing \nModerator: Erika Hanson\, JD\, Clinical Instructor\, Center for Health Law and Policy Innovation\, Harvard Law \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Using Government Grants and Incentives to Reduce Food Waste
DESCRIPTION:Food loss and waste and food insecurity are parallel issues emerging as some of the greatest food system challenges today. While an estimated one-third of food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted\, more than 735 million people around the world are hungry and 11 percent are severely food insecure. \nScaling food donation\, which reduces waste and alleviates food insecurity\, requires aligned incentives and sensible policy to motivate individuals and companies to donate rather than discard surplus food. Because there are often costs associated with donating food\, such as those associated with storing and transporting it to a food recovery organization\, government grants can help offset these costs and create the infrastructure necessary to establish long-term food donation practices.  Similarly\, incentives such as government recognition may encourage businesses to direct safe\, unsold food to food banks rather than the landfill.  Establishing government grants and incentives can be a powerful tool to influence business behavior and promote more sustainable food systems. \nDuring this dialogue we will hear from representatives in several countries where grants and incentives have been used to spur innovation\, create necessary infrastructure\, and acknowledge businesses who are creating a positive impact by reducing food waste and hunger.  This meeting offers a forum for leading stakeholders to discuss some of the best practices\, challenges\, and considerations of creating and implementing government grants and incentives. \nOn behalf of Harvard Law School Food Law and Policy Clinic (FLPC) and The Global FoodBanking Network (GFN)\, you are invited to a webinar on Using Government Grants and Incentives to Reduce Food Waste\, the third and final webinar in a series of virtual events highlighting barriers to food donation and the related policy solutions through our joint Global Food Donation Policy Atlas. \nDate: June 17\, 2024 \nTime: 9:30 a.m. – 11 a.m. ET \nVenue: Virtual (Zoom) \nOPENING: \n\nEmily M.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Leveraging Reporting Policies to Reduce Food Waste
DESCRIPTION:Food loss and waste and food insecurity are parallel issues emerging as some of the greatest food system challenges today. While an estimated one-third of food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted\, more than 735 million people around the world are hungry and 11 percent are severely food insecure. \nScaling food donation\, which reduces waste and alleviates food insecurity\, requires aligned incentives and sensible policy to motivate individuals and companies to donate rather than discard surplus food. Reporting interventions that require the measurement of food loss and waste streams\, such as environmental\, social\, and governance (ESG) reporting; Scope 3 emissions reporting; and food waste reporting are key solutions. They can incentivize entities to target and measure their waste streams and help them identify areas where they could reduce the costs of food waste through food donation. Leveraging such laws can be a powerful tool to influence business behavior and promote more sustainable food systems. \nThis dialogue will reveal the potential for well-designed\, implemented\, and enforced food waste and emissions reporting polices to encourage greater food donation and minimize food loss and waste and its negative impacts on food insecurity\, environmental damage\, and climate change. This meeting offers a forum for leading stakeholders to discuss some of the best practices\, challenges\, and considerations of emissions\, environmental\, and food waste reporting. \nOn behalf of Harvard Law School Food Law and Policy Clinic (FLPC) and The Global FoodBanking Network (GFN)\, you are invited to a webinar on Leveraging Reporting Policies to Reduce Food Waste\, the second of an ongoing series of virtual events highlighting barriers to food donation and the related policy solutions through our joint Global Food Donation Policy Atlas. \nOPENING: \n\nEmily M.

SUMMARY:Webinar: The Global Food Donation Policy Atlas: National Strategies Around Food Waste and Food Donation
DESCRIPTION:Food loss and waste (FLW) and food insecurity are parallel issues emerging as some of the greatest food system challenges faced today and\, as such\, are increasingly policy priorities for governments around the world. While an estimated one-third of food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted\, more than 820 million people are undernourished and one in nine is food insecure. In many countries\, food donation is a popular and logical solution to redirect safe\, surplus food into the hands of those who need it most. \nScaling food donation requires aligned incentives and sensible policy to motivate individuals and companies to donate rather than discard surplus food. Some governments have crafted national strategies for reducing food waste\, specifically through food redistribution. A well-designed national strategy provides clear targets\, feasibility roadmaps\, success metrics\, and designates actors tasked with meeting the goal to facilitate a coordinated approach to a complex issue. \nIt is critical to bring awareness to the issue of food waste and how increasing food donation efforts can be key to hit emissions reduction goals. Yet\, only 21 countries have included FLW in their nationally determined contribution (NDC) plans\, much less food donation. \nThis webinar will convene stakeholders across the globe in a discussion about the importance of national strategies to reduce FLW and increase food donation. \nDate: Tuesday\, 23 April 2024 \nTime: 9:30 a.m. – 11 a.m. ET \nIntroduction:\n\nAmbassador Ertharin Cousin\, Founder and CEO Food Systems for the Future; Managing Director Good Food Opportunity Fund; Distinguished Fellow Chicago Council on Global Affairs; Visiting Scholar Stanford University Center-Food Security and Environment\n\nSpeakers:\n\nLana Coppolino Suárez\, Associate Manager in the Materials Management Branch\, The Environmental Protection Agency\, USA\nPete Pearson\, Senior Director\, Food Loss and Waste\, World Wildlife Fund\, USA\n\nSession Notes:\n\nFollowing the presentation there will be time for questions from the audience.\nThis session will be available in English and Spanish.\nThis session will be on the record and a video recording will be available for viewing following the event.\n\nRegister here: https://fbli.foodbanking.org/fbli-sessions/global-food-donation-atlas/
