 Manioc project in Brazilian schools teaches children about the importance 
 of local Brazilian food traditions. Since October 2002, children attending 
 public schools in Rio de Janeiro have had the opportunity to learn more 
 about Brazil's food history and habits through Projeto Mandioca. This 
 project was developed by Teresa Corcao and Margarida Nogueira, Terra Madre 
 chef and convivium leaders, and has already involved about a thousand 
 children, including many from the favelas. Courses in public schools enable 
 children to appreciate the importance of manioc in an enjoyable way through 
 informal lessons, drama and practical demonstrations. They learn how to 
 prepare tapioca (a flour obtained from manioc tubers used to prepare a 
 light very nutritious pancake, cooked without oil) and many other 
 traditional Brazilian dishes. In this way they can appreciate their 
 culinary traditions and strengthen their relationship with their Brazilian 
 cultural identity.\n\n\n
