Nourishing School Communities: From School Nutrition Policies to Reality
When public-private partnerships work towards healthier school food.
Nourishing School Communities and the Nutrition Resource Centre (NRC) will be hosting a webinar on Thursday, December 4th, 2014, at 12 PM EST. Nourishing School Communities is an initiative organized by the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
The webinar aims to provide an overview of the current state of school food and nutrition policy across Canada. Discussion will also take place to explore how these policies can take shape in the classrooms and school programs.
Organizers have identified three main learning objectives associated with the webinar:
•Provide an overview of the Nourishing School Communities initiative and current provincial school nutrition policies in Canada.
•Present two case studies of private school lunch providers using the current provincial school nutrition policies in Canada.
•Explore learnings from working with school food providers through public/private partnerships.
Registration can be completed online. Further details about presenters and learning objectives can be found on the NRC’s website.
