Food sharing : quando le politiche alimentari incontrano la sharing economy

2018 - Franco Angeli

152-166 p.

  • Within the current debate on food-related issues, special attention is drawn on food sharing initiatives: forms of sharing that rely on the use of online platforms and allow reuse of extra food, reducing wastage. The article shows the results of an exploratory survey carried out in Milan during EXPO 2015 (1,119 cases), investigating the level of awareness and integration of these practices on the daily life of citizens. Results show positive representations connected with food-sharing, but the need of stronger support for active participation. [Publishers' text].
