'Jong Leren Eten' - Learn to Eat Young - makes young people food literate through education about healthy and sustainable food within education and childcare.
'Jong Leren Eten' aims to make young people food literate within education and childcare, by teaching them about healthy and sustainable food. This initiative enables young people to make healthy and sustainable choices for themselves.
The programme envisions a future where youth are aware of their food choices and its impact on their health and the environment. It focuses on integrating food and nutrition education within education.
As a collaborative initiative of the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV) and the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport (VWS), Young Learning to Eat promotes cooperation between the 'green' sustainability domain and the 'white' health domain, focusing on nutrition and education.
