However, data indicates that one in nine people suffer from undernourishment or shortage of food in the world. Furthermore, this problem generates adverse impacts in the environment and the economy. Costa Rica is not exempt from this phenomenon; therefore, in compliance with target 12.3 of the Sustainable Development Goals, the country initiated actions through the Costa Rican Food Loss and Waste Reduction Network and one of its members, the Costa Rican Network of Sustainable Educational Institutions (REDIES). This latter committed itself to quantify the food loss and waste (FLW) in the canteens from a pilot group of their members. The objective of this case study was to determine the FLW in the restaurants of five institutions to generate data experience that allows to create indicators and useful information in the search for strategies against food waste. The amount of FLW was measured using the standardized methodology explained in the Guide for this purpose, published by the Costa Rican Network. In general terms, most FLW in this case study comes from the amount of food leftovers. Consequently, it is concluded and recommended to focus on awareness campaigns, quality and portioning to address the issue, and to consider that each institution must place emphasis through its reduction plan with respect to the findings generated in each food service or canteen.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="es"><p><![CDATA[Resumen Un tercio de la producción global de alimentos es perdida o desperdiciada, generando impactos en los sistemas alimentarios. Sin embargo, los datos indican que, en el mundo, una de cada nueve personas sufre subalimentación o escasez de comida. Además, este problema genera impactos adversos en el ambiente y la economía. Costa Rica no escapa de este fenómeno, por lo que, en concordancia con la meta 12.3 de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible, se han iniciado acciones a través de la Red Costarricense para Disminución de Pérdida y Desperdicio de Alimentos (Red PDACR) junto a uno de sus miembros, la Red Costarricense de Instituciones Educativas Sostenibles (REDIES). Esta última se comprometió a cuantificar la pérdida y desperdicio de alimentos (PDA) provenientes de los restaurantes de un grupo piloto de cinco de sus miembros. El objetivo del estudio fue determinar las PDA generadas en los restaurantes de esas instituciones para generar experiencia que permitiera crear indicadores e información útil en la búsqueda de estrategias para evitar el desperdicio alimentario. Las PDA fueron cuantificadas empleando la metodología estandarizada que contiene la ''Guía para medición de desperdicio de alimentos en cocinas institucionales o comerciales'' publicada por la Red PDACR. En general, la mayoría de las PDA detectadas en este caso provienen de alimento dejado en los platos de los usuarios. Consecuentemente, se concluye y recomienda enfocar las intervenciones en campañas de concientización, calidad y porcionamiento, para atender este problema, y considerar a su vez, que cada institución deberá colocar énfasis en un plan de reducción según los hallazgos particulares para cada restaurante.]]></p></abstract>
