Social responsibility no more food waste

Abstract

The Hilton Cartagena hotel is a luxury hotel where people from all over the world come to relax, to enjoy vacations, meetings, and conferences. The three months of my internship at the hotel gave me a learning experience and skills that I wanted to obtain in a real working environment. With the help of my coworkers and supervisors, those three months became a training that helped me change my outlook on many things. Food waste is a problem that has been around for a long time in some hotels and restaurants in Colombia. We know that it is not the duty of restaurants and hotels to feed those in need, but fulfilling their social and environmental responsibilities, it is necessary to make good use of food that is in good condition and that has not been consumed. Every day ends up in the garbage tons of food that could be consumed or donated to people suffering from hunger and malnutrition in the city of Cartagena. Through the development of the food donation project to the Colombian food bank, it seeks to minimize hunger and malnutrition that exists in the city of Cartagena.
