Promoting Youth Awareness about Food Choices and Waste Reduction for a Sustainable Future<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>In an era where \u201cfood waste\u201d has become a global megatrend, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) Food Waste Index Report 2021 reported that over 1 billion edible meals are discarded daily by households worldwide. This food waste contributes to 8\u201310% of global greenhouse gas emissions, making food waste reduction a critical mission for all sectors worldwide.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

To celebrate World Food Day<\/strong> and reaffirm its commitment to sustainability, Electrolux<\/strong>, with support from the Electrolux Food Foundation<\/strong>, continues its global initiative\u2014the \u201cFood Heroes Workshop\u201d<\/strong>. This program has reached over 300,000 children and youth in more than 30 countries, inspiring them to value food, make mindful consumption choices, and reduce food waste.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This year, Electrolux Thailand<\/strong> hosted the Food Heroes Workshop for 130 students at Rama IX Kanchanaphisek School, supported by over 30 employee volunteers. The workshop featured engaging activities such as drawing, coloring, and a simple cooking class\u2014decorating cakes with fruit\u2014to teach children about sustainable eating in a fun and interactive way.<\/p>\n

The Food Heroes<\/strong> initiative encourages planet-friendly eating habits through three key principles: eat more plants, waste less food, and try new things. <\/strong>These principles aim to help children understand how their food choices impact the planet.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alexis Richard<\/strong>, General Manager of Electrolux Thailand<\/strong>, shared, \u201cImproving the well-being of people and the planet is at the heart of Electrolux. World Food Day is a meaningful opportunity to raise awareness about the importance of food in our lives\u2014it fuels us, supports our health, and strengthens family bonds. Food waste is a pressing issue, and starting with children is key to building a sustainable future. We\u2019re proud to see this initiative nurturing young food heroes here in Thailand.\u201d<\/p>\n
