For a healthy future

At more than 1,000 schools, ‘Know What You Eat’ has already made pupils or students aware of healthy, safe and sustainable food. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre is delighted about this. Not every child learns about nutrition and food skills at home, after all. Yet this knowledge helps young people develop a healthy relationship with food. Everyone deserves an equal start. Knowing what healthy food is—that is something they will benefit from for the rest of their lives!
