Dialogues on the Waste Prevention Program II

Duration September 2020 – May 2022

Project manager Dr. René John

Client Umweltbundesamt

Cooperation partner Stakeholder Reporting, Wuppertal Institut, INTECUS GmbH Abfallwirtschaft

The large quantities of waste that are constantly produced are valuable raw materials. Waste prevention is therefore of great importance. The first waste prevention program of the federal and state governments responds to this. However, the approaches often lack practical relevance, which is why a stronger concretization and binding nature of waste prevention is necessary.

The project will identify these through analysis and workshops with stakeholders in four thematic areas (textiles, disposables, event management, and education/intercultural communication). Through innovative discussion and participation formats, concrete approaches to action and instruments are to be developed that are jointly supported and implemented by the relevant stakeholders. With webinars, this will be integrated into the design of the questions and thus also the workshops, in order to also develop a stronger agreement of shared responsibility for the approaches discussed there.

More Projects

July 2022 – May 2024

As part of the WWF project "CLIF - Climate Impacts of Food", ISIconsult is conducting a social-empirical study together with Zühlsdorf + Partner on the relevant sustainability impacts of food consumption in Paraguay, Thailand, South Africa and Germany.

December 2022 – January 2025

Against the background of a growing global demand for proteins and at the same time significant negative impacts of the production of animal products, the focus of the project is on the exploration of alternative protein sources and analogues. The aim is to obtain an overview of current processes, raw materials and products for the provision of alternative proteins and analogues and to investigate, on the basis of a selection, how likely and desirable the diffusion of these alternatives is.

June 2023 – December 2024

ISIconsult accompanies target-oriented measures in the field of nutrition in the state of Brandenburg in 2023 and 2024. The aim is to win over actors in the food system to participate in the implementation of the strategic goals and to record implementation measures by means of monitoring.
