Food is
everybody's business and deserves a key position in every young person's
education. The links between food, diet, health and the quality of life
are indisputable. Today's young people are already tomorrow's consumers
and citizens. There is a need to develop aware, informed users and consumers
of food.
FoodForum is an independent food education service, supporting an
understanding in the use and enjoyment of food.
The essential aim of this site is to provide a forum for:
Teachers who are seeking support, guidance, information and ideas
to help them in their teaching.
Children and young people making use of the computer to access
information and support about food and consumer issues, egs. for homework,
when doing project work or when researching a specific topic.
Parents who want to keep themselves informed so that they can
support their child's education, health and well-being.
FoodForum is managed and directed by its founder, Ali Farrell,
a trained home economist and teacher and a leading practitioner in food
education.
