Our research focused on the problem of food waste,
which has several detrimental societal and economic
implications. But, with the aid of contemporary
technologies and political controls, food waste can be
eliminated or at the very least minimised. Food waste
management technology is useful for mobile applications.
The programme makes an effort to encourage healthier
food administration. Our proposed solution should enable
the UAE community to share food and reduce food waste
through the usage of mobile technologies. This study is a
first step in creating a more effective strategy to reduce
regular food waste.
