The Thesis examines the organisation of the school catering process within the framework of a sustainable circular economy. The study is based on a case study conducted in schools in Rēzekne, identifying the volume and patterns of plate waste, as well as assessing the impact of targeted interventions and students’ attitudes and knowledge regarding food waste. Solutions for promoting zero-waste food consumption in schools were developed – a prototype of a recommendation system, a conceptual action plan for transforming the catering process, and a framework for food system transformation through the prism of responsible consumption.
