"The Good Food Strategy was initiated by Céline Fremault, the Brussels Minister for Environment, as a new vision of the food system for Brussels by 2035. The plan is organised around 7 themes and 15 actions to help develop sustainable food systems in the future. The developed strategy is expected to act as a guideline for the coming years so that the city of Brussels can: 1) increase local sustainable food production; 2) support a transition to sustainable food supply; 3) support the transition of food demand; 4) develop a “good food” culture; 5) reduce food waste; 6) design food systems for the future; and 7) ensure strategic implementation. Some of the ongoing activities include: the Vegetable Garden project, which has been implemented in schools to provide support for 10 new school vegetable gardens every year until 2020, and the promoting the use of “Rest-o-Packs,” which allows customers in restaurants to take their leftovers home in order to reduce food waste.
