COVID RESPONSE

The impact of COVID-19 had created a serious problem for all partners in implementing much of what they had identified through the MTR and subsequently was agreed at the SGM in Warsaw.

Poland, Romania, Portugal, Italy, UK and Germany all have similar restrictions in place and this impacts on all our partner cities.

Může školní jídelna změnit způsob, jakým zacházíme s potravinami?

Propagací dobrého jídla tak přispíváme ke zlepšení stravovaní přímo v rodinách. Zároveň pozitivně ovlivňujeme další generace z hlediska jejich výběru potravin.
