At the beginning of July, we held a workshop as part of the “Green Opportunity” project, co-financed by the Erasmus+ program. The meeting was attended by partners from Bulgaria – the Branch Association Polymers and the association “Get Involved” from Greece – Liofyllo, and from Croatia – More Coaching, as well as youth workers and volunteers.

 

The main goal of the workshop was for each country to share good practices related to the circular economy. The partners presented interesting and innovative practices, initiatives, and enterprises that promote sustainability and green thinking.

 

Together, we visited the interactive educational center for the separate collection of packaging waste by ECOPACK Bulgaria. The center’s aim is to educate children and young people about the benefits of waste separation and recycling, as well as the importance of this activity for protecting the environment from contemporary threats.

 

The center is part of a complex that houses ECOPACK Bulgaria’s most modern facility, specialized in sorting packaging waste made of paper, plastic, and aluminum, which we also explored with great interest.
