Free from poverty and exploitation, free from disease, thirst, and hunger. These five freedoms are the driving force of Free The Children’s WE Villages, a holistic and sustainable development model, which unlocks the basis for change in the international communities we partner with. One of the most pressing issues directly affecting poverty alleviation today is the growing challenge of food security, the availability of and access to an adequate amount of healthy, nutritious food that meets populations’ dietary needs and food preferences. That’s why, thanks to PotashCorp, the Food Pillar of Impact has been added to WE Villages.
WE Villages provides access to five key Pillars of Impact—Education, Water, Health, Food, and Opportunity—to empower a community with the means to forever lift itself from poverty. Why these five Pillars of Impact? Because together they can create powerful change. All five Pillars
of Impact of the WE Villages model are owned and maintained by the community, and designed to be self-sustaining after the initial project implementation.
The Food Pillar focuses on innovative farming techniques and water management projects to help ensure developing communities have access to self-sustaining food sources, directly improving health, access to education and life outcomes. This lesson package was created to
provide teachers with a comprehensive lesson on the purpose and inner workings of the Food Pillar. With this knowledge, students will learn the value of their participation and understand how their contribution can address the problem of global hunger. The lessons are grounded in
the WE Schools Learning Framework, ensuring students develop the core skill sets that help them achieve the learning goals that contribute to the outcomes of creating a global citizen.
Each lesson in the package is organised into starters, main activities and plenaries, with suggestions for differentiation. Clear learning objectives and success criteria following Bloom’s Taxonomy of Learning ensure progression within each lesson and the package as a whole.
These lessons develop many aspects of character education and SMSC, with a holistic and tangible approach, encompassing local and global social awareness and action, and empowering young people to make positive changes in the world around them.
