Celebrating the Mother Earth Day and the World Health Day

Eat Smart Save Your Land
Eat Smart Save Your Land is a KA229 Erasmus+ project where partners from Greece, Turkey, Austria, Serbia, Italy and France recognizing that:
a)If we want to feed a future population a healthy diet within planetary boundaries we have to transform eating habits, improve food production and reduce food waste,
b)Schools are ideal settings for supporting the European Green Deal as these are responsible of young people’s education and their ability to act as responsible citizens who fully participate in civic and social life, but there is big differences in the way they interpret and deal with “green growth” (sustainability and nutrition education),
come together to help students be equipped with the necessary food "literacy" (how & where food is grown and produced, what ingredients/substances it is made of, how it’s transferred, if it’s safe & healthy, etc) so to be able to link the compulsory topic of nutrition with sustainability and counteract climate change.

International Mother Earth Day
Mother Earth is a common expression for the planet earth in a number of countries and regions, which reflects the interdependence that exists among human beings, other living species and the planet we all inhabit.
The theme for 2021 is Restore our Earth.

World Health Day
April 7 of each year marks the celebration of World Health Day. From its inception at the first Health Assembly in 1948 and since taking effect in 1950, the celebration has aimed to create awareness of a specific health theme to highlight a priority area of concern for the World Health Organization. This year WHO invited all to join a new campaign to build a fairer, healthier world.

Students and teachers in all partner schools, who participate to the eTwinning / Erasmus+ project "Eat Smart Save Your Land", decided to celebrate the World Health day and the International Mother Earth day at once through a campaign entitled "Restoring our Earth:for a healthier and fairer world", so as to encourage their societies to fight health inequities and protect our environment as this has a vital role to our health and wellbeing.

World Health Day (7/4/2021)
Students in Greece started their learning activities on the topic, brainstorming based to a comic that was created by the teacher on Pixton Edu. Students were asked to think about health inequities and make presentations by using any Web 2.00 app they would like.

A "different" adventure game

Tip
Looking inside will reveal the answers

A student remixed a game entitled “Save the princess” to scratch and created a text adventure game entitled “Tackle health inequities”...

Players have to think so as to solve the problem, type their answers choosing only 1 answer to each question. If they type anything that the choice doesn't give it will stop.
