The students visited several primary schools in Birulia, Savar area and Daffodil Institute of Social Sciences - DISS to disseminate nutritional knowledge among primary school-going children, aiming to create awareness about the importance of nutrition and promote healthy habits through interactive and engaging methods such as role-play, poster presentations, quizzes and games. 
 
The students effectively transported the significance of a balanced diet and essential nutrients. They also emphasized the importance of physical activity and distributed informational materials to the children, ensuring that the knowledge reached the wider community. The initiative showcases the students' obligation to their social responsibility and serves as an inspiration for others to engage in similar activities.
 
The Department of Nutrition and Food Engineering, DIU firmly believe that the social responsibility demonstrated by its students inspires others to get involved in community service projects, resulting in the development of a future generation that is healthier and more informed.
