A NUTRITION AND HEALTHY LIFESTYLE PORTAL FOR YOUNG PEOPLE!

We all know that good information is one of the major building blocks of good nutrition, good health and good health and lifestyle habits. This is probably truer for children and adolescents than any other population segment. Accessible and relevant information is key to not only building awareness but also for enabling young people to take responsibility for their health and to develop good lifetime nutritional habits. Education of our young people is a major priority and responsibility for EUFIC.

We built the website Coolfoodplanet oriented towards children and adolescents and complementary to our main site. We have developed scientifically validated information on nutrition in English, French, German, Spanish and Italian.

In order to make it more accessible and relevant to young people , we have and are continuously evaluating children's and adolescent behavior as web users and their perceptions about nutrition, continuing on from our commissioned study Childrens Views on Food and Nutrition: A Pan European Survey . The objective is to attract children and adolescents directly to the site and use of the site by school programs.

We work in partnership with healthcare and nutrition professionals for quality content provision. We establish contacts with school administrations for dissemination of our materials and to build up interactive relationships with them .

Our objective is to provide scientifically validated, useful and constantly updated information on nutrition and healthy lifestyle. We provide science-based and credible information on foods, food related and fitness topics to young people in a form that is understandable and relevant - to inform, to educate and to build the basis for healthy lifestyle and nutritional habits for life.
