The Interreg Aurora funded project Food education for the future addresses the shared challenges of climate change and low food self-sufficiency in Finland, Sweden and Norway. The project has strengthened teachers’ competence and enhanced the capacity of schools’ to teach about sustainable and local food production. By creating school gardens, teachers, students, and children have gained hands-on knowledge of how food is produced.
