The power of youth in protecting the last wild river in Europe

Tuesday 26 November 2019
Permet - Albania
Co-organisation of the activity : Municipality of Permet

The Vjosa River is one of the last natural, wild rivers on the entire continent so we must protect it. The knowledge about its values, functions and potential for sustainable economic development are very limited.
This activity aims to inform and raise awareness for saving this wild jewel of Europe. The awareness campaign will be created and implemented by the youth, while the Municipality and local NGOs will have a supporting role. The main activities are:
– An exhibition named “Save the Vjosa River” with information, facts, photos about Vjosa.
– The Plastic Recycling Corner- the plastic collected from the cleaning activities in Vjosa Valley will be recycled by youth.
– A creative raise awareness campaign from the youth.
– At the end of the day, different documentaries will be presented in the City Center.
