This event was part of the project “Be a changemaker for a European sustainable campus”, in collaboration with EDISU Piemonte and CROUS Versailles. The project was co-funded by the European Union in the framework of Erasmus+ and it aims at promoting the concept of sustainability among university students. Through this project we wanted to support the capacity-building of partnership’s staff as well as facilitating a mutual learning opportunity on a transnational level among young people. The goal of this activity was to raise students' awareness on food waste and to teach them how to create dishes from left-overs and food scraps.
Participants were divided into 4 groups, each of which had to replicate one of the recipes proposed by the coordinators. After the first round of cooking, students proceeded with the following recipee and this went on until each group prepared 4 dishes. At the end of the workshop there was a moment of feedbacks and each student shared with the others what they had learnt that day about cooking and food waste. Eventually there was a final lunch with all the dishes prepared by the participants.
