The ecosystem of more than 4,200 students, staff and faculty of the Academy of Logistics and Transport (ALT) strives to follow ethical principles of obtaining food and consumables, as well as environmentally friendly methods. ALT recognizes the impact it has on the environment and local society. Meals are provided on campus in accordance with local sanitary regulations and state standards. If possible, food is purchased from local suppliers and processed in such a way as to minimize the amount of waste. The Food Sustainability Policy is available here. ALT has one student canteen (the Degirmen franchise), 4 student canteens of Students’ Houses. Meals on campus are provided by third-party organizations that conduct a general measurement of food waste.

As for the SDG 2 indicator “Prevalence of malnutrition”, we are on the way to achieving this goal. Thus, living and studying in the largest and most economically developed city, our students and employees do not face problems of hunger or food insecurity. In Kazakhstan, agriculture is one of the most developed sectors of the country. Kazakhstan also borders with Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and China, which supply agricultural products to the domestic market at affordable prices.
