8. History of Food Heroes
• This Food Heroes program is unique around the world in that it is the first
comprehensive yearlong curriculum to be based on new guidelines on what is a
healthy and sustainable diet. These guidelines were developed in conjunction
with leading experts from Harvard Public School of Health, The Lancet, World
Food Programme, USC Cancer Institute, EAT Forum, Stockholm Resilience
Institute, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and many more.
Collectively, the global research expert network behind Food Heroes is
incomparable.
• Before the start of Food Heroes in 2013, dialogue on health was very siloed.
Doctors didn't talk to nutritionists who didn't work with climate change experts
or farmers who didn't collaborate with chefs. Food Heroes' curriculum changed
that.
• Food Heroes staff was involved in the breakthrough Rockefeller Lancet
commission "Planetary Health" in 2015. Food Heroes staff is on the advisory
board of the leading food systems transformation platform, the EAT Forum.
Food Heroes staff is working along side the EAT Lancet commission on defining
a healthy and sustainable diet, to be launched in April 2018.
10. The Program
Food Heroes is the first comprehensive behavior change system to
fully integrate personal and planetary health into a new dietary
guideline, classroom curriculum, and home activities.
Games and kidspeak make knowledge actionable down to the level of
every bite. Kids can bond over lovable characters. It is packaged to be
easy to implement by teachers in extracurricular classes. Classroom
curriculum is paired with home activities to change behavior of both
children and their parents.
11. Program End Goals
The vision is to have food curriculum adopted into mandatory school
education - either core or at least extracurricular, from preschool to 3rd
grade.
A teacher certification program will enable nutritionists and teachers to
teach good nutrition and sustainable food systems. Beyond the
classroom, the program’s narrative and characters will engage kids at
home through media, books, toys, etc.
A sustainable revenue model from home product sales, namely through
our subscription box “dining room adventure land” concept, and mobile
in-app purchases will enable distribution of free classroom curriculum
throughout China and eventually globally.
12. Download the 7 Week
Food Hero Program
Includes the Strategy Dashboard (Business Metrics,
Player Types, Desired Actions, Feedback Mechanics,
Rewards for the STUDENTS) and each module.
It is a big file, so absorb as much as you need to
create a compelling design.

15. Teacher Training Brief
Food Heroes already has a great 7 week program for the
Kindergarteners, but in order to scale, we need to train the teachers
to run the 7 week program enthusiastically in their schools.
We hope to have a combination of online and offline training for
teachers around China to learn about Food Heroes and how they
can use it in their classrooms. This will start off with a 4 Hour
Training Workshop for the teachers as the main experience but
ideally extend to motivation support during the 7 week program.
It's very important that after training completion, the teachers are
motivated and committed to implementing the program in their
classroom. We want the teachers to deliver the whole Food Heroes
program from start to finish.
16. Teacher Training: Opening
Questions
•How to get teachers excited about teaching Food Heroes. Make
discovery phase more exciting.
•How to gamify the 4 hour workshop?
•What is the experience after the 4 hour workshop, while they are
teaching over the year?
•How do we deliver the package of curriculum materials to the
teachers? How do we best present the materials to teachers? Both
training materials and students' in-classroom use materials.
•How to get teachers excited about taking the workshop, so they
encourage other teachers do it?
•How can we turn teachers into advocates? How do teachers
advocate to other teachers in other schools to use Food Heroes
throughout the 7 week program, in a casual conversation? "Hey look
at this video.”

26. 12-Month Subscription Box
Food Heroes already has a great 7 week program for the
Kindergarteners. But once the 7 week program ends, we want to
make sure they continue to be excited about Food Heroes and live
healthily throughout.
This also serves as an ongoing monetization strategy to keep the
organization sustainable.
The Food Heroes Adventure Box is designed to engage the
Kindergartners and involve the family. It will be a 12-month
Subscription Model ordered online by the parents. These boxes can
be used in any family scenario, independent of classroom use. In
many cases, grandparents or parents might want to gift this item
for birthdays.
27. Review the 7 Week
Food Hero Program
You will see placeholder designs of the current
planned collaterals, assets, printouts, card games for
the Food Hero 7 Week Program. The Subscription
Model should be in a similar theme and enrich the
gameplay especially if the kids have been through
the 7 Week Program.

28. The Challenge
Design a 12 month program where the subscription box will be delivered to
the households once or twice a month.
Creative
Some questions to answer: What do you get in each box? How to include
elements that are fun for the whole family, and not just for the kid? What are
the components, and how can these be developed in a cost-effective manner?
Could the games double as dining area decor? Are flashcard products an
option? Could you create a storybook and the characters within that
narrative? Could you create puzzles to solve over time? What about bonus
games that are downloadable online? What about birthday party gift boxes?
Marketing / Distribution
How will people discover it? Gamified marketing plan for selling
subscription box. Potential website design for ordering. Upselling to other
products online. Can we create a peer to peer design, where the box is more
effective when bought together and played together with friends?
