Food for Thought (EWB-Canada)

Food for Thought is an Outreach module developed by EWB-Canada; it is suitable for students in the age range of Key Stage 3.

The workshop inspires and encourages debate on the issues of food supply and production, investigating myths surrounding food and hunger, as well as discussing ways in which processing and productivity can be improved. A hands-on activity involves processing and husking rice, mimicking reality for farmers around the world.
