About
SIFO has had a number of food waste projects funded by national research funds and private actors, including grocery chains. Food waste in households; causes, measures, practices. Methods: survey, experiments, fieldwork, waste analyses.
Experts in qualitative methods such as at ethnographic interviews, home visits/walk-along interviews, refrigerator studies, focus groups etc. Quantitative studies as large consumer surveys (also in other EU projects) on consumer practices and behaviors.
SIFO has previously studied food waste through an everyday life perspective on food handling, and identified main drivers for household food waste, needed to understand the underlying causes of food waste at household level.
SIFO is currently coordinating the Belmont funded DISCo project where surplus food and food waste are some of the aspects researched. Too good to go, White pony express US and Foodbanks Norway are some of the stakeholder partners in the project. https://uni.oslomet.no/disco-project/
