uThe impact of the project consists of an increased awareness of healthy living and healthy eating on the part of students and parents in our schools. They will learn about the causes and effects of obesity, acquire ways to combat the tendency to sedentarism, be more open to spending time outdoors and to using their free time to do exercising in a playful way. In short, the students are expected to change their current unhealthy eating and living habits. As well as this, through direct participation in exchanges, students become more motivated, be more culturally aware and improve their communication, interpersonal, language skills. We expect them to develop a greater sense of tolerance and mutual respect.
uAlso, participating teachers become more motivated and develop on a personal level. They become more prepared and better equipped to deal with the problem locally. Through the exchange of best practices with their European peers, they are expected to develop professionally as well.
