euFOOD has been a Youth Exchange implemented under the Erasmus Plus in the frame of the KA1 and hosted from the Italian SEYF. The youth exchange welcomed 10 youth organizations from 10 EU Countries (Italy, Malta, France, Bulgaria, Poland, Hungary, Greece, Spain, Romania and Slovenia). Each organization contributed with the direct involvement of 4 young participants aged 18-25 years old and 1 youth leader, for a total of 50 participants. The project has been implemented in Andrano, a small village in the in the South of Apulia from 21th to 28th May 2015 for 7 days of activities, in the historical setting of the Castle of Andrano, through the strong cooperation of international partnership (EXPO 2015, BIENNALE DELLA DIETA MEDITERRANEA PER I DIRITTI UMANI AL CIBO SANO ) and local ones (the theatre work on food “Saziami/Feed Me”);. The exchange has been focused on the priority to promote the inclusion and the participation of young people in activities fostering healthy lifestyles, in particular dealing with the issues of combating eating disorders by fostering the exchange of experiencese, knowledge and best practices on good eating behaviours. euFOOD represented a concrete follow up of a previous youth exchange (YE SALENTO, TC Outdoor Plus) and came up from the need to combate the growing issue of eating disorders and to promote a more inclusive society by providing young people with more experiential cultural and cognitive tools in order to be more aware of the risks of a wrong diet and to be able to moltiplicate their knowledge among their peers. The methodologies used for euFOOD met the requirements of the non-formal learning: the young participants got in contact the local realities that deal with food& wine networks and organizations that promote helathy lifelifestyles and transmit traditional knowledge about food culture. Workshops and visits to local activities, organizations that deal with food issues, health and development cooking sessions, icebreaking, team building and problem solving activities with related de-briefing, daily evaluation moments have been the centre of the exchange that, finally, will result as a constructive know-how sharing. Finally, thanks to the realization of a digital multilingual cookbook, the participants have been involved in a process of transfer of knowledge by the virtual peer communication; the final product is helping to achieve the general objective of ERASMUS+ and it has been a tool for disseminating the results of the exchange by the young actors of euFOOD. Our expectations, fullfilled, were that the youngsters became protagonists and messengers of Europe in a small reality, far from the main circuits, where people have different conceptions of youth employement but without a net-sharing of the knowledge. Through the application of outdoor and experiential education, in line with the principle of non formal education, visits to local realities and the sharing of best practices, the project stimluated a sense of cooperation and teamwork within the young participants, in order to destroy barriers and to foster a more inclusive and healthy society, through the common creation of more accessible lifestiles.
