What is EKOS Zasavje...
EKOS
Zasavje - Ecological group of Zasavje is a non-government, non-political
and non-profit environmental organization, registered as an ecologically
orienet society.
It´s
goals are:
environmental
education
protecting our
environment and controlling ecological problems
promoting environment
activities
international
cooperation of environmental groups
EKOS Zasavje was
established in December 1991 with the purpose of expanding the environmental
knowledge and organising different environmental projects for the population
of Zasavje. The goal of EKOS Zasavje is not only protecting the environment,
but also elevating the environmental awareness. Most of our members are
very young, but in our organization after they make first experiances with
ecology, many active cooperate on this sphere and participate in ecological
movement on other spheres. Because we are young, we represent future for
many projects, and after time we plan a spred inside of the organization.
In EKOS Zasavje we recognise, that knowledge in present time is one of
the most important value, so because of that fact our NGO organizes ecological
seminars 2-3 times a year for all secondary schools in Slovenia. The opinion
of the participants, profesors and representatives of NGO this seminars
are from the best. Every next seminar we would like to improve and to built
up.
EKOS Zasavje
also works in the cooperation with NGO, like REC - Regional Environmental
Center for Middle and Eastern Europe, SEG - Slovenian Environment Movement,
UMANOTERA - Slovenian Foundation for Sustainable Development, MOST SCI
Slovenia, GAJA, DPD Maribor, RETINA, RIDMC, LABECO, DREVO, PEC, NEC, VITRA,
DVO Zagorje, GREENPEACE, WWF, Youth and Environment Europe,... We exchange
our information through correspondence, telephone conversations, meetings,
councils, and so on.
Our group
EKOS Zasavje doesn´t make any profit because all the found is spent for
the environment projects that are currenty running. Voluntary work and
modest donations do not allow us to satisfy all the needs and the program
diversity of our environment activities. Beacuse of that fact even the
money for the basic management is scarce. In spite of that we do our best
contribute to the worldwide effort to keep the environment clean and healty
for all.
