Colloquium Field Trial. Building blocks for a nutritional turnaround at the UHW

The question of how we feed ourselves and, above all, how we can achieve a healthy diet for everyone is at the centre of the ‘Feldversuch’ project. The aim is to achieve a more conscious coexistence of humans, animals and plants and thus put our diet on a sustainable footing. In order to realise this for the university community, there is a cooperation with the Entwicklungsgesellschaft für ganzheitliche Bildung e. V., which combines vegetable cultivation with nature conservation in the Pferdebachtal. On the one hand, the regional vegetables are processed into appropriate dishes in the university cafeteria. On the other hand, students have the opportunity to critically reflect on their nutritional behaviour and make concrete changes by learning the basics of sustainable agriculture in practice.
The field trial colloquium aims to be a participatory discussion forum for students and those directly involved in the project. The colloquium will begin with an open brainstorming session on possible topics in order to then develop a semester programme together.
