![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() As an ambassador for Tunza Eco-Generation I started working with young people, mostly with the students in primary school and high school. Firstly, I asked for a permission from the government and talked with the major. After my conversation with him I am allowed to realize all my ideas with their support. They were really happy for me that I am chosen as an ambassador and about having this experience to work with a world known organization. The representative of education in municipality of Prilep, Mr Marjan Matrakoski agreed with me that he should support my activities and provide help for improving them among the schools here. In the period from 15th till 30th September I realized fourteen presentations in eight primary and secondary schools. The main goal was introducing students with Tunza Eco –Generation and present them about the environmental issues as climate change effects, carbon footprint and influence of toxic materials. My idea was to initiate environmental ECO TUNZA patrols in every school who will collaborate with me in term of different topics related with environmental issues in our country. During the presentations and the meetings with the students from eco patrols we came up with ideas for the following period. The first idea was increasing the awareness of citizens about wild landfills/ around our town and solid waste pollution in our city environment. We took pictures of solid waste hot spots in Prilep area. which were very upsetting in term of high pollution. This week we organized an art exhibition with pictures exposed in the center of Prilep. Through this art exhibition we send a message to citizens about one of the main problems that we are facing now and the need of activities which will help for solving it. The next Tunza Eco generation activity is coming soon. J |
