EU Green Week Starts
Serbia marks the EU Green Week this year too, a set of events that gathers hundreds of citizens of all ages who share a vision of a greener Serbia with better air, water, and soil quality, less pollution, and a safe environment. This year it will take place from June 3 to June 11, and will focus on skills for sustainable, resilient, and socially fair communities.
The EU, which has the strongest and most complete environmental legislation in the world, hopes to see Serbia continue to transpose and implement legislation to become greener than other member states. The celebration of the EU Green Week is a testament to the EU’s overall support to the sector in Serbia and its cooperation with national and local institutions in this aim, in a Team Europe spirit. EU Green Week events are open to all citizens and will take place all around Serbia. They include wide array of activities dedicated to all ages: sport events, workshops, round tables, eco actions and competitions.
Stay tuned for more updates on Green Week 2023 in Serbia! This year’s EU Green Week program is here.
The European Union is the world leader in environmental protection. The EU supports Serbia on its path to a healthier environment. With over 580 million EUR in non-refundable grants invested in environmental protection and climate action in Serbia, the EU is the largest donor in this area in the country. With EU’s financial support, Serbia is working to develop and implement plans for the strategic protection of environment—a sustainable system of environmental protection that creates healthier surroundings and raises the quality of life.
