Greening public and learning spaces
GAIA’s involvement in the local community includes environmental education, advocacy, and practical solutions. GAIA’s property is based in one of the villages of Ranilug Municipality, but activities take place in other places, including other municipalities. This autumn, GAIA wants to: 1) support the greening of public spaces in the municipality and 2) improve and equip a new educational space for children and youth in Ropotovo. The first part of the project will involve tree planting in public areas, based on a municipal plan. Summers are getting hotter and drier, so more trees in public spaces are necessary. The other part will involve creating and constructing educational elements in the new space (garden beds, furniture, a composting site, a playground, and similar). The space will be used from this autumn mainly for environmental programs, but also for cultural and artistic activities. There might be activities organised with and for local children and youth.
