Detailed Description

According to statistics, 1/3rd of the world’s hungry live in India. In the global hunger index, India ranks 63rd among 88 countries. And India wastes as much food as the whole of the UK consumes. The primary objective is to reduce the amount of food being wasted at IITB Hostel 12, 13, and 14 mess. The secondary objective is to investigate whether installations can bring about a behavioural change. Why IIT Bombay? Because food waste is a serious problem on campus; most students are unconcerned about food waste, and there is an immediate context in which to implement and test.
