Erasmus+ KA2 Food for thought (2020-2023)

Welcome on the website of our Erasmus+ KA2 project Food for thought.

This project is designed to investigate the ethical process of European food production and consumption with regard to improving young people’s awareness of where food comes from, how it is consumed and most importantly, how it is wasted.

A common area of social capital was identified as being lacking in large areas of Europe. It became clear during the planning of this project that there is a lack of participation among young people in society regarding food ethics. Society in general but more importantly young people, are becoming increasingly unaware of where their food originates and how it makes its way from ‘field to table’. A main objective is to explore whether a more ethical approach to the production, consumption and waste of food in Europe can lead to a healthier lifestyle and heightened awareness, while at the same time contribute to a sustainable and cost-effective food cycle.
