Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: Food donation has expanded globally and has become a common form of food assistance in emerging countries. However, research on food donation experiences in these settings is still scarce.
UNASSIGNED: In this context, the objectives of the present work were as follows: (i) to explore the views of Uruguayan stakeholders on food donation as a strategy to reduce food waste, (ii) to identify barriers and enablers for food donation in Uruguay, and (iii) to explore the organizational characteristics of Uruguayan food banks.
UNASSIGNED: A qualitative approach based on two data collection strategies was used: documentary content analysis of official governmental documents and in-depth semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders related to food waste and food donations in Uruguay.
UNASSIGNED: Food donation emerged as a central strategy for food waste reduction in the view of Uruguayan stakeholders, mainly because it was perceived as an efficient strategy to reduce food insecurity. The complexity of food donation was acknowledged by Uruguayan stakeholders and who identified several barriers for its implementation related to economic considerations, the characteristics of the donated products, legal and commercial considerations, and organizational characteristics of food banks.
UNASSIGNED: Although most barriers were aligned with results from previous studies conducted in developed countries, some specificities to the Uruguayan context were also identified. Clear and detailed legal frameworks to ensure that the donated products reach the target population along with nutritional requirements for the foods to be donated were deemed necessary.

摘要：
粮食捐赠已在全球范围内扩展，并已成为新兴国家普遍的粮食援助形式。然而,在这些环境中对食物捐赠经验的研究仍然很少。
■在这种情况下，当前工作的目标如下：（i）探讨乌拉圭利益相关者对粮食捐赠作为减少粮食浪费的战略的看法，（ii）确定乌拉圭粮食捐赠的障碍和推动者，和（iii）探讨乌拉圭食品银行的组织特征。
采用了基于两种数据收集策略的定性方法：对官方政府文件进行文献内容分析，并对乌拉圭与食物浪费和食物捐赠有关的主要利益相关者进行深入的半结构化访谈。
■在乌拉圭利益相关者看来，食品捐赠已成为减少食物浪费的核心战略，主要是因为它被认为是减少粮食不安全的有效策略。乌拉圭利益攸关方承认粮食捐赠的复杂性，并确定了与经济考虑相关的几个实施障碍，捐赠产品的特点，法律和商业考虑，和食品银行的组织特征。
■尽管大多数障碍与以前在发达国家进行的研究结果一致，还确定了乌拉圭背景的一些特殊性。明确和详细的法律框架，以确保捐赠的产品到达目标人群，以及对捐赠食品的营养要求被认为是必要的。
