A training program focused on sustainable food systems for secondary education institutions. The project aims to enhance vocational education teachers’ capabilities to teach about food from the perspective of green values and sustainable development, covering lifestyle changes, consumption, and production. The project tests and creates training modules and materials openly available for vocational education, aiming to increase awareness, for example, about food waste among the general public.

The project is focused on awareness about food waste. It is aimed to develop a new generation of professional educators in green and sustainable food competencies in line with the environmental and climate goal: a global challenge that matters in Europe.

The project results outputs are going to provide relevant materials to train and equip the trainers in the challenge of educating citizens that are interested in changing individual consumption habits and reducing the ecological footprint connected with food.

In effect, the project results are conceived to foster the communication and dissemination in awareness intensive campaigns, for people and trainers interested in food waste reduction.
