  2. The FUSIONS Multi-stakeholder Platform More efficient use of resources and a considerable reduction of food waste in the food chain from field to fork. This is the aim of FUSIONS, a four-year European FP7 project involving universities, knowledge institutes, consumer organizations and businesses. An important element to the successful delivery of FUSIONS is the establishment of the FUSIONS Multi-Stakeholder Platform. Utilising the evidence, policy and behavioural change recommendations from the delivery of the key activities within FUSIONS, the Platform will enable, encourage, engage and support key actors across Europe in delivering a 50% reduction in food waste and a 20% reduction in the food chains resource inputs by 2020. Platform Members are organisations with an interest in preventing food waste and optimising food use through (social) innovation throughout the food supply chain, from primary sector to waste management, from industry to governmental and societal organisations. The aim of the FUSIONS Platform is to: • Organise the stakeholder consultation process during the Project on the following topics • Quantification and harmonisation of monitoring • Policy • Feasibility, best practices • Sharing knowledge / communication The results of the FUSIONS Platform stakeholder consultation process will feed in the policy and regulation making processes of the EU, and count as stakeholder input to these processes. The Regional Platform meetings are open to all stakeholder organisations and are free of charge. Membership is not obligatory, although we would like your organisation to commit to the same ambitions as the FUSIONS Project: reducing food waste through social innovation. Through the Platform, we ask you to contribute your knowledge and share your experience of working to reduce food waste.
