Direct link to the article:https://www.agronewscomunitatvalenciana.com/la-upv-apuesta-por-reducir-el-desperdicio-alimentario-con-donaciones-y-economia-circular The REDONA project is part of the innovation call funded by the València 2030 Climate Mission, and proposes an effective solution to give a second life to food that does not reach consumers but is in perfect condition to be donated to social organizations. REDONA systematizes the management of food surpluses at Mercavalència to facilitate their donation and ensure traceability. In doing so, it helps prevent the generation of organic waste and contributes to a circular economy model with a positive environmental and social impact.
