Food for All: Analysis of a Case of Nonformal Education on Inequalities in Public School

This chapter intends to participate in the debate on teaching inequality, particularly in response to the following question: Which methodologies are appropriate for developing a reflection on inequalities in schools? This chapter aimed to answer this question using a case study methodology. The case under analysis concerns the experimentation of a training course on food poverty and the right to food, addressed at schools of all levels in the province of Reggio Emilia during the 2015/2016 school year. This example is interesting for several reasons.  We address the issue of inequalities, concretize them, and propose a perspective that moves from global to local, underlining the strong connection between these two dimensions.  It is directly linked to the SDGs and links them directly to the lifestyle and consumption style of young people.  Proposed action-oriented awareness raising and places a person in connection with the community and environment.  It took place with nonformal learning methodologies, but inside the school, involving different age groups. The analyzed experience is therefore of particular interest and can provide useful suggestions for a curriculum and methodology for inequalities.
