It is an international project taking into consideration some important problems and trying to find the best solution. Nowadays children and young people tend to consume unhealthy food. We believe that healthy eating, living a healthy life style and keeping fit are the most appropriate solution to achieve positive results. Providing some activities and combining them into school curriculum can help our children lead healthier lives. Moreover, we want to improve the understanding of cultural diversity and finding the similarities and differences between our eating habits. We hope to give our students the opportunity of using English in an enjoyable way as well as the ICT tools. We want to take part in this project because we realize that unhealthy eating, lack of physical activity and obesity are the most outstanding and growing problems of modern life. According to recent researchers, the number of overweight people (also children) is increasing in the world.
