The Best FoodEducators School Project Day 2025

Supported by IKEA Croatia

Is your school ready to show creativity, teamwork, and innovation in food education?

There’s still time to apply for The Best FoodEducators School Project Day 2025! – a national competition open to all elementary and high schools in Croatia.

This year’s theme, “From Field to Fork,” invites schools to explore any part of the food system — from growing and harvesting, to cooking, nutrition, food waste prevention, or community food Initiatives. It’s a chance for students to learn through doing, connect with real-world sustainability, and see the story of food from start to finish.

IKEA Croatia joins as main supporter

We are proud to announce that IKEA Croatia has joined as the main supporter of this year’s competition, recognising the importance of food education and sustainability in schools.

When searching for partners who share FoodEducators’ values, IKEA stood out as the perfect match.

Their long-term commitment to healthy living, sustainability, and responsible consumption reflects the very essence of our project.

After a thorough and thoughtful communication process, we’re thrilled to make this partnership official.
