Our project “BIOTECHNOLOGY : will it feed the world?” evaluates each country’s different reaction to biotechnology, under sub-project headings:

1. Detection of the local agricultural products
2. Visits to local farms and food industries
3. Mapping of some local farm produce and location of each product seasonal ripening
4. Knowledge of GMOs and “pros and cons”
5. Enquiry about the local and regional attitude to GMOs
6. Tracking the flow of product through the production process and supply chain
7. Expressing attitude towards the problem through arts
8. Environmental impacts

We want to create new teaching methods, visit and cooperate with some local farmers, meet scientists doing research on those topics and publish all the results to the local community. Other goals are improving pedagogical approaches, motivating and inspiring students and teachers, and give them international experiences and perspectives through European cooperation. Teaching materials, DVD, websites and reports will be available for everyone
