If
we want a healthy future, we need healthy children. And in order to
have healthy children, they need to eat the right quantity and quality
of food. In the same way, if we want a sustainable future, we need to
grow a new generation of consumers that are more conscious of their
choices. However, most children and their parents, as well as consumers
in general, lack information and education about nutrition. There is no
better place to start educating our future adults than school. The
following modules stress the relation between health, education and
nutrition by making more conscious choices.
