On behalf of the THORWART-JESKA-FOUNDATION, Gabriele Hussenether, owner of the cooking school "MOKO", would like to inspire students between the ages of 9 and 14 to eat a balanced diet. By cooking together, she imparts nutritional knowledge and promotes the health of the students in the long term. Initially, cooking takes place in the video, but if the situation allows, there is cooking in both schools and at MOKO itself.
