"You need to plan it." Practices of reducing food waste in households
Pešková, Tereza ; Čada, Karel (advisor) ; Tuček, Milan (referee)
"You need to plan it." Practices of reducing food waste in households Anotation This diploma thesis focuses on a problem of consumers' food waste. The main goal is to find out how does the consumer behaviour of the target group look like and how does this behaviour influence the amount of food which is thrown into the trash. By using the theory of practice, therefore exploring specific practices which people use for food consumption, it was possible to tackle the problem. Moreover, this approach enabled to emphasize not only the practices themselves but also the meaning which is connected to them. Results of the qualitative research show that one of the biggest influence on the quantity of discarded food has the shopping behaviour like careful planning of food purchases with respect to real consumption. Different practices were found also in other situations, for instance, when older food accumulates at home and it is necessary to process them to prevent them from being thrown away. These strategies are influenced by different aspects like environment, availability or respondent's experience. In the text are, furthermore, introduced also respondents' motivations and barriers which affect their tendencies to reduce consumption and thus minimalize food waste.

Tomanová, Karolína ; Legnerová, Kateřina (advisor) ; Muhič Dizdarevič, Selma (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with cross-sectoral cooperation in the field of corporate social responsibility (CSR). This topic is researched using a case study of the Food Bank for Prague and Central Bohemia and food chains that have established a cooperative partnership with the organization. Empirical research took the form of an initial fieldwork, interviews, and analysis of websites and other available documents.

First, it deals with the types of cooperation that occur within these relationships and proceeds to explore their dynamics. Furthermore, it examines the motivations of chains for cooperation and the appraisal of mutual cooperation both on their part as well as the part of the food bank, a representantive of the non-profit sector. The thesis can serve as an inspiration for further research on the topic of food banks or cross-sectoral cooperation that would involve perspectives of entities from both cooperating sectors as this represents a fact that is often overlooked in research. Keywords: Cross-sectoral cooperation, corporate social responsibility, food bank, food wasting, non-profit organization.

Plýtvání potravinami na úrovni maloobchodu
Martišková, Lenka
Martišková, L. Food waste on the level of retail. Diploma thesis. Brno: Mendel Uni-versity, 2018. The diploma thesis deals with the issue of food waste specifically focused on the retail level. The aim of the thesis is to define those problem areas in which food is wasted. In order to determine the problem of retail trade, it is important to describe the whole food supply chain, which describes connections between retailers and suppliers that provide supply. The practical part of this work consists of data collection and analysis of secondary and primary data. Since there have been no studies in the Czech Republic that would have relevant methodology or quantifiable data, secondary data are used from foreign studies. Primary data will be obtained from smaller retailers through an interview with retail managers and selected suppliers from the supply chain. The interviews and their analysis will identify the categories of foods where there is food waste and the places where this waste occurs.
