Let’s clean Ulcinj coast from plastic
With this second grant, the NGO Green Life association hopes to continue its awareness-raising, clean-up and recommendation work with local and national institutions.
The project aims to raise awareness among municipalities and the Montenegrin population about the dangers of plastic pollution.
Main results of the project:
- As part of this project, four clean-up days were organised in Ulcinj, including actions on beaches and at sea, thanks to the mobilisation of divers and boats, in partnership with the ‘Sport Fishing Club Neptune’.
- More than 40 bags of waste were collected and analysed by volunteers and members of the Green Life association. A report detailing the types of waste was shared with the local authorities.
- A press conference with the mayor and awareness-raising posters in the tourist area of Liman informed the public about ways to reduce plastic pollution. Despite efforts to encourage a local ban on single-use plastics, the change of municipality during the project and the wait for national legislation have slowed down this progress.
