Goal of the Activity

he goal of this event was to reduce food waste in Cologne by collecting surplus food from supermarkets and bakeries. The gathered items were then shared among the participants, with groceries divided for everyone to take home. Another key objective was to familiarize attendees with the Too Good to Go app, encouraging them to continue using it to help minimize food waste in their daily lives while also benefiting from discounted food prices.

Description

hrough the Too Good to Go app, then created an itinerary for the group to follow. There were five collection points, and together the participants picked up pre-purchased food bags. It felt like a food-themed treasure hunt! At the final location, the collected items were divided among everyone, ensuring people only took what they needed and could realistically use.
