This fall, twelve Ukrainian apprentices will be trained in Toulouse by the renowned Michelin-starred chef Thierry Marx as part of an exceptional Franco-Ukrainian initiative: the creation of "La Cantine de Marioupol" in Dnipro. This cultural and community space will welcome displaced residents of Mariupol, forced to flee after the Russian aggression in March 2022."Since the beginning of the war, it seemed essential for us to support the Ukrainian people. We will focus on the professional training of participants who will manage the dining space of La Cantine de Marioupol. It will be a place of sharing, as well as a hub for training and integration. We hope the war ends quickly so that the individuals we train can thrive in their new roles."
