12 hands-on meetings in the Confcommercio Ascom kitchen workshops in Padua, where participants will learn tasty and easy recipes for preparing appetisers-finger food, first courses, second courses and desserts under the guidance of qualified chefs. During the meetings there will also be training sessions by Fairtrade on conscious product purchasing, sustainable supply chains and label reading.

Two more training meetings will be held on the zoom platform on 17

The EDUCHEF project stands out for its focus on sustainability, offering recipes that are economical, waste-conscious, reuse waste and have a low environmental impact.

This initiative is part of the broader context of the University’s policies, launched in 2016, aimed at promoting well-being and education on sustainability issues in all its forms.
