What is the Low Food Chefs Academy?

In a five-day program, we offer lectures and masterclasses by chefs, product developers, and scientists. This broadens and deepens your knowledge about gastronomy and the food system. During the program, you will work with other participants on a concrete case study and gain research experience. Additionally, you'll build a valuable network and become involved in the Low Food movement.
