Network is based on the assumption that table
manners, likes and dislikes through their formation reflect a vivid image
of society. Food seen as an anthropological paradigm of society, can be
analysed from a variety of viewpoints: art, literature, science, music,
sociology a repertoire, which has as its objective to highlight the
complexity of European food culture acknowledging the present reality and
value that food can assume. This project actively encourages the emergence
of a European identity for children. Sharing ideas about good food from a
local, regional and international perspective, makes this a very
imaginative and attractive initiative for children, parents and teachers.
It allows participating groups to open their minds and explore the
cultural aspects of all European countries involved.
In fact, the theme of the network is European Alimentary Culture, and the
work will focus on raising the awareness of the vital role of the regions
in Europe within the context of European citizenship. The network will
strive to highlight that a strong local/regional identity is essential and
complementary to a strong European identity. Information on various
aspects concerning different layers of identity and active citizenship
will be collected and examined, results linked and translated into
appropriate ICT-based innovative pedagogical and didactical approaches,
tools, materials, courses and curricula enhancing the European dimension
of school education on a regional level. Moreover, regional school
authorities will be actively involved. New, ongoing and completed Comenius
1 and 2 projects on Network Area will be supported and emphasis on
networking to ensure dissemination of results and sustainability.
