Abstract

Within the OECD framework, health literacy, educational processes and empowerment are actually interconnected to embed well-being and values of equity and social justice in school curriculum. Health literacy has an impact on educational outcomes such as learning and critical thinking, enabling students to become empowered individuals as well as ethically and socially responsible citizens. Within a multi/transdisciplinary study oriented to grasp the transition processes to the phenomenon of obesity and promote health education and healthy lifestyles, the present contribution presents the steps of an empowerment and game-based approach in primary school settings in Apulian region, for the development of critical and evidence-based thinking on students’ health choices.
