The campaign ran across multiple platforms, including traditional media, out-of-home media, as well as online and digital media. Using data insights and consumer behavioural drivers, the campaign highlighted the cost of wasting food purchased with their hard-earned money. For the campaign, NEA created the Handy Guide to Reducing Food Wastage and Saving Money. This offers simple, practical tips that households can adopt to minimise food wastage when cooking, buying groceries and eating out. The guide was shared online and distributed through community partners. Industry partners such as food retail businesses also supported the campaign by displaying collateral such as posters and tabletop stickers to encourage consumers not to waste food. The concerted publicity and outreach efforts for food wastage reduction reflect the fact that it would take a collective effort from the community to curb the problem of food wastage in Singapore. A drive to reduce food wastage Waste Less. Save More. 106 NEA ANNUAL REPORT 2015 / 2016 The Environment Challenge for Schools is a national competition created to increase students’ awareness of local environmental issues. For the challenge, schools are encouraged to partner organisations from any of the 3P (People, Public and Private) sectors, such as NGOs, grassroots organisations or companies, to co-create solutions that address local environmental challenges. In 2015, the competition drew 63 entries. At the primary school level, Anchor Green Primary took the prize for the entry 100 Good Wishes Quilt. The students and their parents used leftover fabric materials from IKEA to make the quilt to send home the message of waste minimisation. Zhonghua Secondary School partnered Siloso Beach Resort to take the Environment Challenge for Schools winning prize for secondary schools with their project Interactive Recycling Bin for Plastics.
