Promoting and sustaining health through increased vegetable and fruit consumption among european schoolchildren

Objective

Fruits and vegetables (F&V) contribute to the prevention of chronic diseases. The current intake is below recommended levels in most European countries. The aim of this proposal is to identify determinants of F&V intake among school children, and to develop effective strategies to promote adequate consumption levels. Cross-sectional surveys will be implemented in representative samples of school children in 9 European countries, and a comprehensive intervention programme will be developed and tested in 3 countries. It is expected that the project will provide important insight into F&V consumption patterns in different countries and into psychological and socio-demographic determinants of such consumption patterns. The project is also expected to result in a set of intervention strategies appropriate and effective in promoting F&V among school children and their parents across Europe.
