FOOD safety

This dynamic program engages high school students in understanding the critical connection between food safety and their daily eating habits, with a special focus on street food consumption and cooking practices. Through three interactive activities - the Contamination Chain visualization, Germ Simulation experiments, and a comprehensive Food Safety Challenge - students explore the invisible world of foodborne pathogens and their real-world impact. The program, delivered in both English and Hindi, reveals eye-opening statistics about food-related illnesses, teaches practical prevention strategies, and helps teenagers make informed decisions about where and what they eat.

Goal: To equip teenagers with street-smart knowledge about food safety that directly applies to their daily lives. The program aims to build awareness about the risks of foodborne illnesses without creating fear, instead empowering students with practical skills to assess food safety in various situations - from street vendors to home cooking. By understanding how contamination spreads and recognizing early warning signs of unsafe food practices, students develop critical thinking skills that help them navigate food choices in their increasingly independent lives.
