About our project

FOOD-4-THOUGHT is a strategic partnership co-funded by the European Union, through Erasmus+ funding programme. It aims to encourage the active participation of young people in setting up and maintaining urban vegetable gardens, in order to address current global problems, such as food and nutrition security as well as climate change challenges.

It also supports youth in developing a sense of initiative by encouraging them to get involved in local community activities, to promote Urban Agriculture and encourage local food production for advancing food and nutrition security. Through this project, our team developed this training pack, dedicated to youngsters, with information, exercises and activities meant to support a better understanding of Urban Agriculture and its benefits.
