In 2020, Indonesia generated 67.8 million tons of waste, with organic waste accounting for 60% of the total, particularly food waste. Food waste is a severe problem, particularly in large cities such as Jakarta, where food waste accounts for around 70% of total waste. Poorly managed food surpluses are at the core of the problem, resulting in food waste and greenhouse gas emissions. The Ruang Pangan community in Bandar Lampung is one of several food banks that provide surplus food to disadvantaged communities and orphanages. They created apps like MifsApps to help partners distribute surplus to the community. The app connects food donors and recipients, reducing edible food waste. The app’s mechanism is similar to food rescue, except it provides easy access to surplus information. The app enables members of the Ruang Pangan Community to view surplus data, respond to deliveries, and report on food distribution documents. MifsApps promotes SDGs 2 and 12 (Zero Hunger and Responsible Consumption and Production). The app helps to reduce social inequality and poverty, improve people’s welfare, and promote responsible production and consumption. MifsApps, as a technical breakthrough, is a real-world application for fulfilling the SDGs holistically. |
