Type: article

Abstract: : ECOFEAST is a digital platform designed to address the critical issues of food waste and food insecurity through efficient food redistribution. By connecting surplus food providers with NGOs and community volunteers, the platform ensures that excess food from restaurants, hotels, and residential societies reaches those in need rather than ending up in landfills. Developed using Dart, Flutter, and Firebase, ECOFEAST integrates features like geolocation tracking, notifications, and data analytics to streamline food collection and distribution processes. The platform also emphasises environmental sustainability by helping reduce the carbon footprint associated with food waste. This paper discusses the development, implementation, and initial impactof ECOFEAST, highlighting its potential to createa more sustainable and food-secure community.
