This promotional leaflet was developed to facilitate distribution of the "Do Good: Save Food!" education package. Children are the next generation of adults that will shape the future of food systems. Investing in the education will help to create a culture of change required to stem the waste and loss problem now and in time to come. The education material package is targeted to primary and secondary school students and intends to change their behaviours by: 1. Promoting awareness regarding the economic, social and environmental consequences of food waste 2. Highlighting actions and habits they can take to reduce their own food waste and engage their friends and families. The education package is also structured to enable teachers and counselors to select those activities that best match the needs, abilities and interests of the students while also conforming to time and resource constraints.
