World Environment Day 2023
World Environment Day, also known as ‘Eco Day’, is celebrated every year on the 5th of June and is one of the United Nations’ main tools for encouraging awareness and action for the protection of the environment.
Svitac (Firefly in Bosnia) has celebrated this day with the youngest participants. They saw an educational video about recycling and our volunteers talked with them about waste disposal. After that, they made a poster with polluted ocean, fishes, and other sea creatures, with the message “Let’s save the planet”!
At the end of the workshop, every participant got a sticker with a little tree on the t-shirt.
The workshop was held on the premises of the Youth Centre Brcko District of BiH.
