A project initiated by

Enabling children to make
better food choices

HOW?

Since 2019, Tak Takut Kids Club (TTKC) has been building a village of care for children and youth aged 7 to 14 in Boon Lay. In response to the call from MOH Office for Healthcare Transformation (MOHT) for a stronger community movement in health, we see a need to tap into our combined expertise in community development and permaculture design to make a meaningful difference in the health of young persons, especially those from vulnerable backgrounds.

Participatory Research

Place Making

Community Engagement

Understand the community’s lived realities and perspectives, challenges and strengths.

Co-create a fun and holistic environment with the children, their families, and the residents.

Facilitate transmission of intercultural, intergenerational, and inter-agency knowledge.

The Better Eat Better (BEB) programme envisions a village of care where we can make a meaningful difference in the health of children and youth. In the past year, BEB has involved children in participatory research as well as grow, cook, shop, eat, play and share activities where we actively listen to their voices and co-create strategies in response to their needs. Part of the BEB programme aims to extend the health movement of making better food choices, where we work with the children in TTKC to present findings and discoveries to their peers in school. This BEB video was co-created with the TTKC children and represent a key outcome of our project in 2023. Enjoy the video and the supplementary guide below!
