Project Summary

• Context and objectives:
The act of eating is much more widespread than the satisfaction of a biological need: it is at the crossroads of the emotional, the cultural and the social.

“Plates and Sneakers” is a European project designed to create tools to carry out educational work with adolescents on nutrition, physical activity, culture and citizenship.
In and with the activities carried out we want:
– Develop respect for oneself and autonomy.
– Promote respect for others and solidarity
– Raise awareness about respecting and protecting the environment
– To know its history, its culture in a relation of intergenerational.
– Become an informed and responsible European citizen
– Promote sports activity as a balancing factor
– Highlight French language and culture.

• Number and profile of participants:
About 50 pupils per school, about half of whom will participate in mobility, for the four schools, 200 pupils impacted by the project.
We will involve students with a heterogeneous and complementary profile with special attention given to twenty young people with fewer opportunities (4 to 5 per school).
About a dozen teachers per school will participate in the project.
In addition to these 215 participants, there are between 200 and 400 other indirect beneficiaries who can participate in certain activities.
Other partners related to the project (management, accounting agents) or external will be mobilized.

• Description of activities
With the exception of coordination and financial management, all activities involve and mobilize students. The results will be expressed in French (a brief summary may be in English).
The activities selected are essentially:
– Debates and conferences
– Courses and contributions of knowledge
– Quiz achievements
– Company visits
– Culinary workshops with taste and flavors
– A theater activity
– Achievements of European tables
– Exhibition visits
These elements will be complemented by evaluation sessions as well as by activities intended to promote the dissemination of the project: ERASMUS + area, website, Europe day.

• Methodology
The French coordinator MFR coordinates at the level of his school, and at the transnational level and the local coordinators coordinate at the level of their school.

Working tools, meetings, evaluation grids make it possible to measure the progress of the project with students and teachers involved and mobilized.

• Impacts and expected results
The main expected impact is educational and cultural. Our students by becoming informed consumers benefit from a European cultural openness.
Our schools, our teachers and our partners can open up more to other European cultures with all the activities proposed with the project.

• Long-term benefits
The activities carried out, the elements of dissemination put in place can benefit all the educational communities peripheral to the project.
European culture is strengthened and partnerships between schools, between teachers can continue on other subjects.
The ERASMUS + space, the Europe Day can also help to accentuate the long-term benefits.
