In this journey, we will explore global environmental issues related to food and land use, improve food delivery systems, and fight hunger. We will also learn about food production, distribution, and the consumption processes. We will combine the knowledge of food systems with the urgency of environmental issues to create a vision for change. This program will culminate in a “Take Action” project where we get to address these issues by educating others, promoting local eating, or implementing hands-on solutions like community gardens.
This one-day immersive program empowers girls to understand the critical connections between global environmental issues, food systems, and hunger. Through interactive lessons, hands-on activities, and engaging discussions, girls explore the environmental impacts of food production, distribution, and consumption. They’ll learn how food systems contribute to climate change, deforestation, and food insecurity while brainstorming local and global solutions.
