Food Literacy Skills in Education

Are you interested in participating in the IFHE Pacific Region's Food Literacy Skills Network?

Home economics teachers have a particular interest in developing the procedural or hands on food skills of  young people.  The declarative or food literacy skills, which include but are not limited to the meal planning and shopping skills, need to be incorporated into every home economics teacher's toolkit. 


Congratulations to colleague Dr Helen Vidgen on her recent conferral of her PhD late 2013.  Helen is a senior research fellow and now leads a $220,000 project with the QUT 

More information soon to register your expressions of interest in participating in the IFHE Pacific Region's Food Literacy Network.
