Reducing food waste in hospitality requires a joint effort
Food waste remains a critical issue with far-reaching environmental, economic, and social consequences. Its impact extends well beyond immediate losses, said RMIT experts. According to the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), the volume of food waste was estimated at 1.05 billion tonnes in 2022. This amounts to 19 per cent of food available to consumers being wasted, at the retail, food service, and household level. That is in addition to the 13 per cent of the world’s food lost in the supply chain from post-harvest up to and excluding retail, as estimated by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). “This wastage not only deprives millions of people of regular access to adequate food but also contributes to environmental degradation,” said Dr Truong Thuc Tuyen, Program Manager of Food Technology and Nutrition, RMIT Vietnam. Dr Tuyen highlighted that food production linked to wastage contributes to land use changes, increased water stress, pollution, and biodiversity loss. “In a world where sustainable practices have become an increasingly urgent priority, addressing food waste in the hospitality sector has also become pivotal,” Dr Tuyen said. Common sources of food waste in hospitality“In Vietnam’s hospitality industry, food waste is a complex issue arising from multiple sources”, according to Dr Daisy Kanagasapapathy, Lecturer in Tourism and Hospitality Management, RMIT Vietnam. “Overproduction is a significant factor, driven by the need to ensure ample food supply for unpredictable customer demands. “Hotels and restaurants often prepare large quantities of food to avoid shortages, which frequently results in substantial leftovers being discarded,” said Dr Kanagasapapathy. Buffets, a hallmark of luxury hospitality, contribute significantly to waste as they must be fully stocked until the end of service, leading to a large amount of uneaten food. Dr Kanagasapapathy pointed out that the reliance on fresh ingredients, such as seafood, herbs, and vegetables, while essential for authentic Vietnamese cuisine, also contributes to waste due to their short shelf life and perishability. The cultural norm of serving generous portions, reflecting Vietnamese hospitality and abundance, often results in diners leaving substantial amounts of food on their plates. Dr Kanagasapapathy believes that miscommunication and inefficiencies between kitchen and service staff exacerbate the issue, leading to the preparation of incorrect amounts or types of food. “This can result in surplus food that cannot be repurposed and is ultimately discarded,” Dr Kanagasapapathy said. Customer preferences and dietary restrictions add another layer of complexity. “The diversity in customer tastes, including the growing trend of specialised diets such as veganism and gluten-free diets, means some dishes may not be as popular, leading to wasted ingredients and dishes that are not consumed,” she said. Technological innovations to tackle food wasteIn the battle against food waste, technological advancements are paving the way for significant reductions in the hospitality sector. Dr Tuyen highlighted some key innovations:
Food waste reduction initiativesVietnam’s hospitality sector has witnessed innovative and effective initiatives to reduce food waste, reflecting a growing commitment to sustainability. Dr Kanagasapapathy said: “Food donation programs have emerged, with high-profile hotels and restaurants partnering with local charities to donate surplus food.” VietHarvest, a sustainable innovative social enterprise founded in 2020, focuses on tackling food waste and hunger and helping nourish the underserved communities in Vietnam. Ms Ngo Phuong Anh, City Manager of VietHarvest said: “VietHarvest works with international and local hotels, caterers, restaurants, and supermarkets to collect good quality food for human consumption that potentially goes to waste and instead delivers it to charities that support individuals in need.” During 2022 to 2024, VietHarvest has been focusing on piloting the concept of food rescue in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, and has delivered 68,324 meals, aiding 4,414 individuals, rescuing and diverting 34,162 kilograms of food from landfills, and saving 68,324 kilograms of carbon emissions. In June, RMIT Vietnam Alumni and VietHarvest jointly held an event “ Cook for a Cause ” to tackle food waste and donate meals to people in need in the community within the day. This was part of a broader campaign Sạch – Sành – Sanh (Clean – Clever – Continuity) , which aims to foster sustainable development in Vietnam. 100 children at the Functional Rehabilitation and Assistance Centre for Disabled Children and the Social Work and Youth Cocational Training centre of Ho Chi Minh City received the food donation. Dr Trang Tran (Tracy), General Manager at QTS Vietnam and an RMIT alumnus, said “It is important for business leaders, regardless of the sector or industry, to align our efforts with social responsibility goals such as food waste management, environmental protection, support for vulnerable individuals, and charitable initiatives. “Beyond being businesspeople, we are human beings. These concerns and actions can lead to a better life, enhanced reputation, and a brighter future for the next generations”. Story: June Pham

New training centre to advance future quantum techAlmost $5 million has been awarded in funding to a training centre led by the University of Adelaide which will provide technical and leadership skills to the next generation of quantum technology leaders in biology, engineering, and physics. Photonic chips (like the one pictured) will be combined with quantum materials by the CE-QuTech team to achieve real-world impact with our industrial partners. With an investment of $4,869,032 from the Australian Research Council (ARC) Industrial Transformation Research Program, the University of Adelaide is leading a consortium along with RMIT University and the University of Queensland to deliver this project. Professor Glenn Solomon from the School of Physics, Chemistry and Earth Sciences will direct the new ARC Training Centre in Current and Emergent Quantum Technologies (CE-QuTech). The University’s Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Vice President (Research), Professor Anton Middelberg, says the training centre will play a critical role in advancing Australia’s position as a global leader in quantum technologies. “The University of Adelaide is world renowned for its research in quantum materials and quantum technologies. The establishment of this new CE-QuTech marks a significant milestone in advancing cutting-edge science and technology,” Professor Middelberg says. “This funding will empower Australian researchers to pioneer breakthroughs in quantum technology, and drive innovation and economic growth. Our leadership in developing skilled professionals in this field will ensure Australia remains at the forefront of global technological advancements.” Professor Solomon says that there are exciting economic opportunities and implications for what is seen as “the second quantum revolution”, yet Australia needs to be prepared. “There is a predicted shortfall in the skilled and leadership workforce necessary to keep pace with this change, let alone capitalise on the opportunity for Australia to be a world presence in this space,” he says. “In addition, industry leaders big and small are clamouring for skilled workers in current quantum technology. Many in the industry are seeking an expanding skilled workforce in current quantum technologies, from automotive electronics and lighting to telecommunications lasers. “The CE-QuTech will help meet this need by supplying graduate students and post-doctoral researchers across Australia with hands-on training in both an academic and an industrial research setting.” “The outcomes of training quantum technology leaders in areas touching engineering, physics, and biology will broadly shape the future high-technology landscape. The centre will attract and enable investment, leveraging our existing ecosystem and strengthening economic security in Australia." Professor Glenn Solomon, The School of Physics, Chemistry and Earth Sciences, The University of Adelaide In close collaboration with universities and industry members, and with strategic guidance, the new training centre addresses the advancements needed in Australia as these technologies grow world-wide at an accelerated pace. “The outcomes of training quantum technology leaders in areas touching engineering, physics, and biology will broadly shape the future high-technology landscape. The centre will attract and enable investment, leveraging our existing ecosystem and strengthening economic security in Australia,” Professor Solomon says. Professor Arnan Mitchell from RMIT University says: “I am excited to work with the whole CE-QuTech team to show how our photonic chips can be combined with quantum materials to create new solutions for industry - from wireless sensors that can work underwater to Australian made lasers that we can export to the world.” Associate Professor Jacqui Romero from the University of Queensland says: “This new collaboration between the University of Queensland, University of Adelaide and RMIT University is a great opportunity to leverage on each of our research strengths. We look forward to delivering relevant training for the future workforce of the quantum industry.” Dr Richard Johnson, ARC Acting Chief Executive Officer, says Research Hubs and Training Centres funded under the ARC’s Industrial Transformation Research Program support and foster industry-university research collaboration in areas capable of driving innovation in Australian industries and developing industry-focused researchers. “The breadth and reach of the industrially focused research effort being funded through the program is significant for Australia,” Dr Johnson says.

UB celebrates milestone anniversary in Singaporecampus news UB will graduate 447 undergraduates in Singapore on Thursday marking the 20th anniversary of UB’s undergraduate programs at the Singapore Institute of Management. Photos courtesy of the Office of International Education Published July 10, 2024 When 447 undergraduates receive their bachelor’s degrees from UB during ceremonies on Thursday in Singapore, it will be more than just an achievement for the students. It will mark a milestone for UB, as well. UB is celebrating the 20 th anniversary of its undergraduate programs at the Singapore Institute of Management, located on the island nation more than 9,400 miles away from Buffalo. The program, known as UB-SIM, has produced nearly 6,500 UB alumni over the course of its two decades – an impressive tenure for an American university offering degree programs abroad. “For nearly 30 years — starting with our executive MBA program in the mid-1990s — UB and SIM have fostered deep ties based on mutual respect and shared values," said President Satish K. Tripathi. “Emboldened by this strong foundation, we have achieved ever-more ambitious goals with our growing number of graduates contributing their disciplinary knowledge to the world. As we commemorate this 20-year milestone, I look forward to celebrating our students and our partnership for many years to come.” The celebration will continue through the weekend with the UB Alumni Global Reunion Conference, an inaugural event that will reunite UB alumni from around the world and feature several university guest speakers visiting from Buffalo. “We are delighted to be celebrating this milestone anniversary, which sets the UB-SIM Program apart as the longest-running U.S. program of its kind in Singapore,” says Nojin Kwak, vice provost for international education. “We are very proud of the enduring success of our partnership with SIM, and look forward to continuing that collaboration in the future.” UB-SIM is hosted by the Singapore Institute of Management, a private institution that partners with 10 universities from around the world to bring more higher-education opportunities to Singapore. UB is the only American institution partnering with SIM. Their relationship dates back to 1996 when former School of Management Dean John Thomas arranged with the Singapore Institute of Management for UB to provide an executive MBA program. The success of the EMBA partnership led to UB and SIM collaborating on the delivery of UB undergraduate programs at the SIM campus, beginning in 2004 when UB launched the bachelor of science in business administration at SIM. This was UB’s first undergraduate program delivered entirely overseas. “At the time, UB was well known in Southeast Asia and Singapore was developing international partnerships to expand its higher education capacity,” explains John Wood, senior associate vice provost for international education. “UB had a lot of experience working with partners in Asia to deliver our own degree programs.” More programs, more studentsAs UB expanded degree programs in Singapore, enrollment grew. What began with an enrollment of 50 is now around 1,300 students, who share the campus with those attending SIM’s own programs and those of its other partner institutions. “The majority of UB students there are from Singapore,” says Sherene Milizia, UB’s director of overseas and intercultural programs. “But you also have students from within the region – Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Myanmar, Vietnam up to China and India, as well.” UB now offers seven degree programs in Singapore: business administration, communication, psychology, sociology, economics, international trade and geographic information science. Campus lifeThe SIM campus , where the UB programs are delivered, is about a quarter of the size of the campus in Amherst and stretches more vertically than horizontally. It’s clean and modern and tropical, with a beautiful atrium, long verandas, spacious courtyards and four buildings covering four city blocks. At UB-SIM, classes are taught by visiting professors from Buffalo, faculty hired by UB specifically for Singapore and local instructors hired by SIM and approved by UB. The students typically attend fall, spring and summer, making time to degree as little as three years. UB-SIM has its own student council and True Blue pride is evident based on the UB merchandise worn around campus, says Kevin McKelvey, resident director of UB-SIM. “Even though the enrollment of the UB program is much smaller than the two biggest programs – University of London and RMIT of Australia – the UB students are the most visible cohort on campus solely on account of their wardrobe,” McKelvey says. Bound for BuffaloBryan Thng, a recent graduate of UB-SIM, knew little about UB’s campuses in Amherst and Buffalo before taking advantage of “UB Bound.” The program allows students of UB-SIM to begin their studies in Singapore, but spend a semester or two in Buffalo, typically in their last year. It took about a month for Thng to get used to the sprawling layout of the North Campus and winter was an adjustment. But he has enjoyed watching the seasons change and is grateful for the opportunities that Buffalo has offered, including time as a teaching assistant and traveling to Costa Rica with the School of Management. “These experiences wouldn’t have been possible without coming to Buffalo,” Thng says.
