1 Professor Donna Pendergast Griffith University Ms Yvonne Dewhurst University of Aberdeen... fundamental to human experience and human culture 1

2 evolution of human biology and human society have been intimately shaped by the types and amounts of food available Position: skills and knowledge Disposition: values and attitudes to cope with change, complexity and insecurity to make healthy and appropriate food choices to understand the interdependence of living things to have a global perspective including sustainability and social justice to have a deeper understanding of the complex environmental and social components of food in our lives 2

3 ... embrace multiple disciplines, synthesising these through interdisciplinary and transdisciplinaryinquiry. This disciplinary diversity coupled with the aim of achieving optimal and sustainable living means that home economics has the potential to be influential by intervening and transforming political, social, cultural, ecological, economic and technological systems 3

4 ... ability to identify, understand, interpret, create, communicate, compute and use printed and written materials associated with varying contexts. Literacy involves a continuum of learning in enabling individuals to achieve their goals, to develop their knowledge and potential, and to participate fully in their community and wider society [T]he relative ability to basically understand the nature of food and how it is important to you, and how able you are to gain information about food, process it, analyse it, and act upon it. Methodology Online survey viral techniques provide insights into the definition of food literacy seek opinions relating to the age at which food literacy should be included in the curriculum explore who has responsibility for the teaching of food literacy provide opinions about components of the food literacy curriculum suggest future directions for food literacy education 4
