For instance, between 2019 and 2020, Trützschler India-sponsored Science Labs have completed more than 320 school visits.

For children with the corresponding symptoms, the cuddle room offers safety and security, similar to a cave - a retreat that provides reassurance and self-regulation. Music and lighting effects generated by a projector, for example, create a pleasant atmosphere in which patients can relax and self-regulate.

It also aims to help create a more harmonious society in Shanghai – and to strengthen the ties of friendship between Germany and China. Trützschler has already supported other projects of Borussia Mönchen­gladbach in China before.
