中小学校园食物浪费问题尤其突出，浪费背后呈现中小学生令人堪忧的食品安全、营养、健康等问题。传统饮食习性的培养在当代遇到诸多问题与挑战，学校教育中与饮食习惯等相关的内容呈现碎片化、单一化的特性，很难有效影响中小学生的饮食行为和习惯。中小学食物浪费问题复杂，针对性研究极为必要。本项目拟通过实地调研，选取代表性城市北京、成都的中小学校进行分层随机抽样，系统分析中小学校园食物浪费的规模、结构和主要特征；通过计量经济模型、质性研究、案例研究和干预实验等不同方法，深入剖析造成食物浪费的主要影响因素、关联主体及其复杂的链生关系，提出现阶段我国中小学食育的优化策略及实现路径。研究结果不仅填补我国中小学校园食物浪费定量化研究的空白，而且对推动我国食育纳入中小学课程体系、减少校园食物浪费具有积极意义。

The problem of food waste in primary and secondary schools is serious, which relates to food safety, nutrition and health issues for the students. There are some problems and challenges for the cultivation of traditional dietary habits at present. It is difficult to effectively influence the eating habits of primary and middle school students due to the fragmentation and simplification of the education on dietary habits in school. Food waste in primary and middle schools is complex, so it is highly necessary to explore and address. The project will conduct field investigation by selecting the primary and middle schools in Beijing and Chengdu, which is based on stratified random sampling method. Then it will systematically analyze the characteristics (e.g., scale, structure) of food waste in primary and secondary schools. By using different methods of econometric models, qualitative research, case studies and intervention experiments, the project will do in-depth analysis on the main influencing factors, associated entities and complex linkages of food waste. Finally, it will put forward the optimization strategy and implementation path of food education in primary and secondary schools. The research will not only fill the gap in the quantitative study of campus food waste in China, but also have a positive impact on promoting food education into the curriculum system of primary and secondary schools and the reduction of food waste in school campus across the country.
