Quality of life - Food

Kliekiepedia
Hoofdzaak van het Kliekiepedia initiatief is het tegengaan van voedselverspilling. Dit heeft zowel een mentaal als een sociaal effect. Mentaal gezien zal het men voldoening geven om iets tegen de grote voedselverspilling te doen en uiteraard doen we dat niet allen, maar met zoveel mogelijk anderen. Hierdoor zal de sociale welzijn vergroot worden.

Take your Food @ Hngry
HNGRY kan zowel fysiek als mentaal van grote invloed zijn. Fysiek gezien levert het voedsel het lichaam uiteraard voldoende voedingsstoffen op. Mentaal gezien zal het hen meer rust brengen aangezien ze door dit concept niet veel moeite hoeven te doen om een maaltijd te bereide, dat zorgt voor meer rust.

Tworlds App
Tworlds App kan worden gekoppeld aan mental wellbeing. Mentaal zal er namelijk iets gebeuren wanneer je kan zien dat iemand anders precies hetzelfde moment meemaakt als jij tegelijkertijd. Dit kan je een plezierig of geruststellend gevoel geven.

Mindfood Organization
De Mindfood Organization is mentaal gezien van groot belang voor mensen uit de bijstand. De organisatie kan deze doelgroep mentaal gelukkig maken en 'gelijk' laten voelen, doordat deze mensen gewoon naar de supermarkt kunnen en niet afzonderlijk naar een voedselbank. Hierdoor zullen zij wellicht minder een schaamte gevoel hebben. Dit zal ze mentaal sterker maken.

Lully, sleeping better
Deze gadget kan het beste geplaatst worden bij mental en social wellbeing. Mentaal gezien zal de moeder van het kind meer rust in haar hoofd krijgen, omdat ze niet telkens naar de babykamer hoeft te gaan om te kijken of haar kind slaapt of niet. De Lully zal haar dat vertellen, dus op die manier kan ze ondertussen rustig televisie kijken. Sociaal gezien staat ze wel nog steeds in contact met het kind.

Lully, sleeping better

Meet The Lully, a device that prevents night terrors in young children. The Lully will helping better the quality of life as well as that of their family. Parents can go watching tv without feeling worried about their children's night's rest. The Lully consists of a vibrating pod and a smartphone app. The pod is placed under the child's mattress and communicates with a smartphone via Bluetooth. 

Let's telk about the principles of Don Tapscott, well, two of them: transparency and colloboration. First of all this app will help families through the most difficult part of the day and they are able to be in contact wherever they are. So they know what's happening all the time. That's the transparency trend. The second one is collaboration. Collaboration is mostly about working together, but in this way, we're talking about staying together on a certain distance. Because it´s a kind of collaboration between mother and child.

What about the future? Well, we already live in a world where we can being in contact every minute of the day. But this is just the beginning of the open world. I think the future will be totally open. There will be no secrets anymore, also called as radical transparency. Privacy will be a forbidden word. I am wondering what this means for society...and how we deal with it.

Mindfood Organization

Community Shop is a social enterprise that is empowering individuals and building stronger communities, by realising the social potential of surplus food. Members of Community Shop can shop for good food at great prices, easing pressure on family budgets, but also gain access to professional, personal development programmes, to kick-start positive change in their own lives.

This is an empowerment about non-wasting food, but also to stimulate individuals for building a stronger life. I think this is a better community than the foodbank. Most people feeling a little unfcomfortable when they need to go the foodbank, because it's like a seperated part of our society. But the Community Shop makes it possible to throw this feeling away. They create more equality, because everbody need to go to a supermarket. So the sense of shame people have will dissapear.

Equality is an important value. We're increasingly going to a 'we-society' instead of individualism.

The Community shop is a partner of the Company shop, the UK largest  re distributor of surplus food, you will see in this video.

Tworlds app

Sometimes we all have this funny question: ''Is there anyone else out there doing this exact same thing at this exact same moment?'' Dutch designer Antoine Peters created an app to get the answer ''Tworlds'' and it works very simple.

Log in, allow the app to know your location, and then choose one of the twenty or so subject prompts. For example you tap #rainbow. You take a picture of the beautiful rainbow you see, and Tworlds will immediately share your picture with someone else who is doing the same thing with #rainbow, at that moment. In return you will get the picture from the other and both pictures will be frozen for a moment. 

Of course this is exactly what transparency is about: the poverty to need to know what someone else is doing at the same time. Why are we so curious about that? Maybe we feel a little bit loneliness and are we looking for some support, or is it just curiosity and just for having fun? The future will figure it out...

Take your food @ HNGRY

HNGRY is a food concept store located in Antwerp. At thise store you have the possibility to chose between 10 different dishes. All dishes are preselected including their ingedrients. So, if you have no inspiration for cooking a fabulous dinner, you surely have to go to HNGRY. It´s like walking in a 'living' cookbook.

This concept is espescially for hard working people and those who hate devising a delicious meal every day. We already had Hello Fresh, but obviously we still want to go out for buying food.

I think we have to talk about the ´empowerment´ principle, because of the fact everything must be faster and faster. Rapidity is becoming a part of our society. At the end of the day, most people want to create a dinner as soon as they can.  But this concept is also focused on food wasting. Customers can take the right quantity they need for their meals. So the chance is less more they throw it away. Together, they built an empowerment.

Kliekiepedia

Every year we wasted 1,3 billion tonnes of food worldwide. In the Netherlands we wasted 50 pounds of food per person. But how is it possible? Well, there are many reasons. One of them is the fact that we're cooking too much food, especially rice and pasta. Now SIRE wants to get the attention to this problem.

So last month they launched a new website: Kliekipedia. At this online platform you can find the latest tips about using leftover food in a conscious way. There are many categories like fruit, vegetables, bread, potatoes, meat etc. For example you can find a recipe about croucons, made of stale bread, or a broccoli cake, filled with old cheese and broccoli.

The funny thing is everbody has the possibility to share their recipes and tips with each other. So we're talking about the collaboration trend. Surely people helping other people and sharing their ideas together. Trough this, people will be more conscious about their food habits. At the other hand we create more empowerment to stimulate sustainibility and awareness to others. Conclusion: this trend fits into three principles: sharing, collaboration and empowerment.
