Walk the School Food Talk Ep.1 - School food in the Baltic Sea Region
Various countries across the world have put school food and sustainability in their long term regional strategic plans. Essential involvement, collaboration and having a common goal from local and national authorities is key to advancing school food sustainability and to tackle the challenges that come with it. In this first episode, we're addressing three questions: Why are we talking about school food? What are the thoughts on the SDGs? How could school food programmes help the Baltic Sea Region advance its SDG commitments? We have three fantastic drivers of change discussing this topic.
