The Working Group deals with issues such as the supply, distribution and consumption of food and the management of related waste. It also deals with food education and sustainability and its relations with other subjects. The WG aims to produce knowledge on the university food phenomenon, collecting and disseminating data and promoting exchange of experiences and best practices.

The purpose and the ultimate sense of the vademecum are to serve as a guide for a university that wants to undertake in a systematic and integrated way a variety of initiatives on food, as produced, distributed, consumed, wasted by the university community, thus becoming aware and reflective players in the construction of local food policies.
