Project objectives

The project's goal is to promote environmentally sustainable actions among the involved residents, encourage a series of positive practices, and raise awareness about the sustainable development of remote regions and the risks of hydrogeological instability. It also focuses on the 3R principle (reduce, reuse, recycle), integrating it into our daily lives. The 3R philosophy should be important to each of us, with the words "environmental sustainability" becoming a conscious habit.

Activities

Within the project framework, five thematic events in various formats are planned in partner countries: situation analyses, discussions on local impact and experiences, roundtable discussions, thematic conferences, interactive workshops, seminars, idea generation, press conferences, experience sharing, and networking. The gathered discussions and information will contribute to the project's final output.

Results

A compilation of environmental protection measures and strategies, titled the “Decalogue EchoGreen,” will be developed.
