What a cool way to spend a Saturday with the @globalteachag group that is preparing to go to Uganda this July! #teachaguganda #ilovemyjob

The man, the myth, the legend, Mr. Roger Thurow presenting to our #WFPFGoals students! We are learning about all the resources available for the classroom that students and teachers can use #foodprize22

@WorldFoodPrize Together with @OSweetMurph we train, demonstrate, and build village-based saving & loan groups to support women farmers in Northern Uganda. We have also invested resources in supporting school-based agriculture education through funding school ag projects and training educators

Also, if y’all havent heard about Field of Hope, @nicklaus_soft and I would love to connect with you to work through our different initiatives in Uganda! We are all in this together! #FoodPrize22

A5: I am SO excited to brainstorm with @nicklaus_soft on what we can bring to Field of Hope this year! #FoodPrize22

@kennedymmarissa Yes! Research right now where you are! So imperative to see what’s happening around you !

A4: I would recommend for people to do their research about their own county or state’s food security situation. #FoodPrize22

A4: to take action on food security, one can educate themselves about resources around them and what is happening in their community. Knowing what’s happening where we are RIGHT now is so important! #FoodPrize22

@seannageiger YAS! 🙌🏼 what are you most excited to teach about? #foodprize22

Q3: In the spring I will be apart of #WFPFgoals and taking my knowlege from #FoodPrize22 to a high school classroom to teach my own lesson on Global Competance and Food Security!

Using the school curriculum in Uganda, teachers design hands-on learning activities using school gardens as a learning lab. At the end of the growing season, schools incorporate the Veggie produce in their meals. We're feeding students on highly nutritious meals. #FoodPrize22

@ag_in_Bloom @WorldFoodPrize @thenextnormIA Can you tell me about some of those projects? #foodprize22

@WorldFoodPrize A2. Love working with students on service-learning projects and @thenextnormIA research projects for IYI/GYI to learn about food security. #FoodPrize22

Q2. What types of instructional activities or initiatives have you, or your learning community, participated in to take action for food security and/or climate change?

Q2: With Field of Hope, we work with several farming organizations that talk about issues with climate change and mitigating those risks. A large percentage of those groups are women, who make up the majority of farmers in Uganda! #FoodPrize22

Q1: I am connected to food security issues by working with farmers in Uganda alongside @nicklaus_soft So much amazing work with amazing people to help through agricultural issues #FoodPrize22

Hi friends! My name is is Olivia and I am so excited to be repping Field of Hope at the #FoodPrize22 in Iowa this year! Can’t wait to complete this Twitter chat tonight!

"It is clear we must learn the lessons of the past and tailor and scale our methods to the world we now face. A world where climate change is wreaking havoc on crop production." - @PowerUSAID, @USAID #FoodPrize22

And check out these amazing students from @uidaho and @TeachAgPSU learning how to adapt lessons that they will teach in the Spring! #FoodPrize22 #WFPFGoals

Y’all, we are back at it! Learning about how to implement Global Citizenship lessons in the classroom! #WFPFGoals

Thank you again @globalteachag for sending a gift for one of our Ugandan teachers, Mr. Kabali Edwards! #GLAG21

When you can bridge pickle making to your Horticulture class about food processing, you know it’s a great day #whodoesntlikepickles #handsOn #crosscurriculum #aged

Our FFA kiddos had a great time tonight playing White Elephant and mingling with our Senior Center staff and guests! #holidayfun

Haven’t shared a lot since I have started teaching, but I’m pretty proud of these kiddos! Almost done making Holiday Teacher Appreciation Gifts! #TheirIdea #soproud #aged16
