This Food Explorer’s Guide has been developed within the framework of the EU-funded Map Your Meal project, which, through its various activities and tools, helps young people understand the impact of global food production on people and our planet. This toolkit is for people who are interested in an approach to learning that is driven by young people and who like to explore and build on young people’s existing perceptions about food.

The Explorer’s Guide aims to engage young people, youth workers, trainers, community educators, as well as teachers, and offers interactive ways to explore the origins, journeys and impact of our food. It can be used independently, or as an addition to the Map Your Meal mobile phone application, which explores how green and how fair our food products are.
