School Meals in Finland Investment in Learning School Meals in Finland
School meals in Finland Investment in learning School meals in Finland Finns believe that it is important to ensure that everyone has equal access to education. We have one school for all. At the age of six children have the opportunity to start their education at pre-school. Basic education is compulsory in Finland. This means that all children above the age of 7 must complete nine years of basic education or acquire an equivalent education in some other way. Once they have completed their basic education, they can continue at upper secondary level, either at an upper As a result of our geographical location in Northern secondary school or at a vocational institution, and Europe, our food culture has received strong influences from from there on to a polytechnic or a university. both the east and west.

Pure Finnish food is safe and healthy. In Finland we can grow oats, barley, wheat and rye, and we also have turnip rape fields, potatoes, root vegetables, onions and cabbages. Cows, pigs and poultry are reared here. We get fish from the many thousands of lakes and from the sea. Our forests provide an abundant supply of berries and mushrooms and great hunting grounds. These things form the foundation of Finnish food culture. They are also one of the basis of Finnish school meals.

The Sensory Voyage to Inner Islands
The Sensory Voyage to Inner Islands Sunwha Park Sunwha Park Master’s Tesis Aalto University School of Arts, Design & Architecture Department of Media Visual Communication Design www.leipasaari.com The Sensory Voyage to Inner Islands Drawing and making food as imaginative, multi-sensory storytelling methods for self-expression and sharing with others Abstract Humans are born storytellers. Te visual narrative has been widely facilitated for people to express personal stories and internal feelings. Experiences and meanings are expressed, materialized and delivered to others. Tis collaborative project investigates the efcacy of the creative, sensory storytelling method to enable self-expression in both conscious and unconscious ways. Drawing and food, both of which are universal concepts, were combined as the major visualising tool. Tese components facilitated self-expression through the workshop experience in physical, emotional and multi-sensory ways. Focusing on personal storytelling, this workshop was an attempt to explore the unconscious space of the mind. It borrows from therapeutic methods of projective drawing and expressive therapy. In other words, participants created an imaginative self-portrait in a form of landscape—an island to be specifc—with nature as a thematic metaphor. Each mental landscape was in turn transformed into recipe of bread. Bread, as edible self, thus enabled people to materialize their inner selves through making it. Participants shared their stories with others by sharing about and eating each other’s bread throughout the entire multi-sensory experience. Te analysis of stories visualized in drawings and in bread, along with participants’ feedback, examined participants’ feelings of self-expres- sion and how familiar elements (drawing and food) could be used when combined for storytelling in a creative way. -

Abstract Book
SESSIONS K Thursday 13:45–15:15 K1 Global cultures of masculinity Chair: Anna Hickey-Moody, Goldsmiths College, United Kingdom This panel brings together established and emerging scholars from a range of institutions that are renowned for their contributions to cultural studies in order to explore the politics of globalization through the lens of located studies of masculinity. Across lived and theoretical engagements with empirical, transnational business cultures, film, media, sport and philosophy, the scholars brought together here mediate lived practices and disciplines of thought located in very different cultures and contexts. Issues of identity politics such as disability, ethnicity, workplace culture and epistemic debates brought to the fore through philosophical investigations are explored side by side in this challenging and complimentary collection of works, to offer a global, practical and theoretical perspective on the lived experience of masculinity in contemporary cultural formations and practices. Masculinity Politics and the Jargon of Strategy Timothy Laurie, University of Melbourne, Australia It is a sociological commonplace to say that masculinity is articulated ?strategically? to achieve social or material rewards, and many critics have pointed to the impediments to social justice initiatives caused by the strategic possession of gendered social advantages. While valuing these insights, this paper interrogates the formula of MASCULINITY = STRATEGY as the sense making device through which masculinity is held ethically
