Description of the practice:
When developing the project, we have tried to provide a complete and holistic picture of each unique situation as it relates to youngers. While there are many food sustainability barriers to education, the project has focused on practical tools those individual teachers and administrations can put to immediate use in their classrooms and schools. This project is a student oriented selection of activities that focuses on easy to use activities for teachers and students. Included in the activities have been sustainable solutions, language, environment activities and technology. Teachers have created tools for evaluations, and guidelines that can help promote sustainable solutions in the school and the classroom setting. The project has maintained a culture where students are achieving, active, procreator, responsible, and included. Through promoting learning and acting for susstanaible environment , we have committed to tackling sustainable solutions and raising students to be active citizens with increased abilities.
Students were able to articulate the concepts of zero hunger and food waste, and their effects on people globally and in their communities. They articulated the problems of food waste and shared comprehensive ideas on how to mitigate food waste and promote SDG 2: Zero Hunger and SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production. Students were also able to critically analyze how their school contributed to food waste or food sustainability and understood how their personal actions could have an effect. They collaborated and evaluated suggestions for combating food waste. The topic of Food Sustainability was one of the main knowledge components of education for sustainable development and it spanned subjects beyond geography and science.
