Innovative Strategies for Public Catering: Sustainability Toolkit across Baltic Sea Region

Programme 2014 - 2020 INTERREG VB Baltic Sea

Date of latest update: 2024-07-27

Description

Description (EN):

The StratKIT project is about making the procurement of public catering services more sustainable. Public authorities have a large purchasing power and have the ability to give clear signals to the market towards green growth and circular economy. However, public procurement is a complex task and good practices in the Baltic Sea region are mostly isolated. StratKIT brings together public authorities, catering service providers and researchers in a network to set up a toolkit and an online open knowledge platform for sustainable public catering.

Achievements (EN):

Outstanding network of cooperation: Hundreds of public meal stakeholders (administrators, procurers and caterers) from Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Poland and Russia were cooperating within the StratKIT project. The project started with mapping the state-of-the-art of sustainability in catering services in the project countries and beyond. It analysed the local conditions and specific factors enabling or limiting the progress towards increasingly sustainable procurement and catering services. Within a joint learning, experience exchange, and innovation process, the partners of the project gradually developed important expertise to support the service providers and adjust the procurement process for more sustainable public meals. External recognition: The StratKIT project caught the attention of a wide range of stakeholders outside the consortium. The success of the project can be measured in the fact that the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) has asked permission to share the Online Toolkit on their pages (spring 2022). In addition, the initiators of quite a large Best-Re-Map Joint EU Action have been highly interested in the outcomes. The Joint BSR Report for sustainable public procurement and catering services, published within the project, received its recognition by being cited in a scientific paper. Institutionalised knowledge: The expertise of various institutions dealing with public meals has been significantly enhanced over the three years. Many of the published tools directly advise how to improve the governance structures and organisational set-up in order to support sustainable public meals. For example, the getaway "Strategies for Change" includes tools specifically designed for decision-makers, customers, and suppliers who intend to make changes in the process of choosing and providing public meals. The transnational cooperation within and outside the project partnership has inspired not only the involved partner municipalities, but also their neighbours. https://interreg-baltic.eu/project/stratkit/
