The European legislative framework, which was approved as a part of the so-called Circular Economy Package in May 2018, also focuses specifically on the prevention and reduction of food waste. And the Czech Republic has taken this into account while preparing the update of its waste management plan and waste prevention programme, which will now have a separate part dedicated to the food waste and its prevention.
