Abstract

Makan Mantra is a strategic communication campaign focusing on the reduction
food wastage in Singapore. This is the first student-led campaign to partner 13
Food & Beverage (F&B) businesses to reduce food waste in Singapore. Targeted at
young working adults aged 20 to 34, the objectives of the campaign were to raise
awareness of food wastage and to enable consumers to reduce their own. It sought
to achieve this by introducing and implementing eight methods, known as ‘mantras’,
for consumers to adopt throughout their meal.
