Did you know that the countries with
the highest rate of osteoporosis - Finland, Sweden, United
States, & England
- are also the countries with the highest rate of consumption
of dairy products? (The Food Revolution, by John Robbins,
p. 104)
The educational initiative at
VAI is geared toward school age children and their parents.
Some of the
information
that we will provide may not be popular, but it is necessary
to start telling the truth. Corporations have coerced
and mislead the public for profits. It's high time
we speak
out to protect our children’s future - their health
and their planet. We will tell the truth.
The planned curriculum
has four main structures which will be customized for
different languages and cultures.
Curricula will be developed for Kindergarten thru second
grade, 3rd through 5th, 6th through 8th (middle school),
and 9th through 12th grade (high school) students. Each
course will include an age appropriate video and printed
work sheets. The course work for the two older groups will
also include vocabulary lists, quizzes, and other assessment
tools. The oldest children will be provided with two weeks
worth of informational materials.
It is imperative that
children are not just informed, but also inspired to act
upon the information, and to inspire
those that are still uninformed. The coursework that we
will present is meant to be remembered for future use and
reference, not just for entertainment.
The faster we can
receive funding for the project, the faster we can complete
the curriculum. We will start our
program at the high schools, since these children will
soon be taking their place in society. We hope to follow
rapidly with all the other levels as soon as possible.
With sufficient funding ALL of these materials can be distributed
for free!
