Corresponsabilità educativa alimentare: scuola e famiglia attorno alla tavola

Abstract

Food education is essential for the future of the young generations, requires co-responsibility and educational alliance between parents and teachers, becoming a key perspective for training planning oriented towards the sustainability of life. The relationship between humanity and food, while responding to a primary need, is a source of reflection and choice of values, a sign of the relationship with oneself, with others, with the planet. Eating together, a typical character, albeit not exclusive to the human species, transforms the nutritional gesture into an eminently cultural fact and loads the moments of meals with an emblematic educational value. Around the table we eat, we talk, we compare, we put together experiences, ideas, emotions and differences, humanity is revealed, the search for the sense of eating in the pleasure of being together and communicating.
