October 16 is traditionally celebrated as a World Food Day. This year, the day
will be marked in Mongolia under the theme ‘Healthy Food- Healthy Eating
Habits’. In this regard, the UNFAO Mongolia organized a training on healthy
food, healthy eating habits and food safety for students, who are studying in

Day. The training involved over 100 students of MUST, NUM, and MNUMS.

Day, was the lecture for students. It is important to raise awareness of youth on healthy food, healthy eating habits and healthy food production. Further, we aim to give this kind of information in an
understandable way to children.”
