The goal of this project was to achieve an increase in the quality of work, procedures and capacity building of both partners through the development of a transnational network of the Really Healthy School (SZŠ) program. By addressing common priorities in education for sustainability, we wanted to enable schools, students and the school canteens to make a change leading to a sustainable future. With the project, we mapped the situation in both countries in the field of education for sustainability and implemented a comprehensive program developing the culture of eating. We are proud to have collected and offered to target groups examples of proven innovative interdisciplinary education programs in the field of competence development for sustainability and practical skills in catering. The members of the project created model school educational programs "Really Healthy School", which will serve as a model for other schools. With the theme of food, we fulfilled the expected educational outcomes from preschool education to the 2nd grade of primary schools and contributed to the social inclusion of all excluded groups. Our goal was also to provide educational tools for educators to create an inclusive environment in schools.
We decided to apply for this project because its main goal was the development of the transnational network of the Really Healthy School (SZŠ) programs and the improvement of the quality of work and procedures in the field of education towards sustainability. Our needs were to find effective ways to contribute to a sustainable future through education and school meals. The project offered us the opportunity to address common needs and priorities in the field of education and school meals by sharing examples of proven practice and creating new digital tools. Mapping the situation in both countries and subsequently proposing concrete measures to improve education policies appealed to us as an opportunity to actively participate in positive change. In addition, the examples of proven innovative sustainability education programs offered by the project were a valuable source of inspiration for our professional activities. The thematic focus on food and food as an universal theme that can support social inclusion and the creation of an inclusive environment in schools motivated us to participate and get involved in the project's activities.
