Проектът
„Bon appétit“ е 7-дневен семинар по програма „Еразъм+“, който ще се проведе във Франция и ще събере 20 млади европейци, за да изследват връзката между храната, устойчивостта и творчеството чрез съвместно готвене.
Програмата включва работилници, дейности на открито и групови проекти, които имат за цел да повишат екологичната осведоменост относно хранителните навици и практиките при готвенето, както и да развият умения за творческо мислене, работа в екип и културен обмен. Опитът има за цел да насърчи личностното развитие и активното участие в промяната на начина, по който избираме и приготвяме храната си.
Целите
Акцентът на този проект ще бъде върху повишаването на осведомеността относно устойчивите практики в областта на храненето и начините за промяна на ежедневните навици при избора на храна, която оказва влияние върху здравето и околната среда.
Освен това ще поставим акцент и върху междукултурния аспект, като споделяме традициите си, свързани с домашните ястия, обичаите и рецептите, за да научим повече за всяка култура.
Методологията
Проектът следва подход на неформално образование, съчетаващ учене чрез опит, творческо изразяване и групова рефлексия в кухнята.
Ключовите методи включват:
