Every year, millions of tons of food end up in UAE landfills, wasting precious resources and accelerating climate change.
At Ehfaaz, we believe food should never be called “waste.” Through Food is NOT Waste®, we collect and repurpose surplus food into safe animal feed and compost, protecting the planet while advancing UAE’s food security agenda.
Roundtable launch event with Dubai Municipality, Amer, Alshaya, Hiltons
Workshops in Schools
Students explore the real cost of food waste through interactive learning and fun challenges, helping them rethink what’s on their plate and what ends up in the bin.
Ambassador Sessions
Youth ambassadors champion food recovery and circular thinking in their schools and communities, turning knowledge into leadership and local action.
Composting in action
Participants see firsthand how food waste becomes new life transformed into compost that nourishes the soil and closes the loop on resources.
Our Partners
Ehfaaz helped us turn what we once called ‘waste’ into sustainable feed for our animals. It’s saving us money and helping us meet our sustainability goals.
Local Farm Cooperative
We used to throw away surplus food daily. Partnering with Ehfaaz showed us how it can create value instead — for farmers, for the environment, for all of us.

This program changed the way our students think about food. They now see it as a resource, not something to throw away.
