“Zaporizhzhia Green Map”: Your Eco-Project Should Appear There

Environmental initiatives and their authors: from now on, everything related to solving environmental difficulties and landscaping of our city can be found on “Zaporizhzhia Green Map”. And not only to find, but to add your own initiatives, or join existing ones.

Students of Smart Kids IT school and “Ecosens” NGO developed the electronic Google-map and the wall map with QR codes with the support of the competition “We Are the City”. Now on the map there are about 80 initiatives with names, addresses, descriptions of contents and photos.

Tatyana Zhavzharova, author of the project:

“Our organization has been working with schoolchildren for a long time and we are sure that it is the schoolchildren who now agree and are able to work and believe that they can make the city greener and more beautiful with their own hands. We have condominium associations, schools, but not many of them. We can focus on these schools, condominium associations and find out that they have made a public garden, which means that we can. Or, an initiative that teaches, let’s say, sort garbage, an enterprise that we think that it pollutes the air, but it turns out that it plants hundreds of trees every year”.

The authors of the project note: in recent years, a large number of “green” projects created by active Zaporizhzhia citizens have appeared in Zaporizhzhia. Public gardens, ecological playgrounds, Khortytsa labyrinth, magnolias in the Kindergarten Botanical Garden, dozens of green areas, environmental games and quests. By the way, many of these initiatives are the result of grant support of the competition “We are the city”.

Iraisat Magomedalieva, coordinator of the competition “We Are the City”: “This project assimilates all the goals that are set for “We Are the City” itself. This is both an environmental component and a confirmation that together we can do many useful things. ”

Fill the whole map with geotagged new eco-projects: this should be the goal of all concerned citizens, – they are confident in “Platform for Joint Action” NGO, which is the organizational partner of the competition “We Are the City.” The management of “Ecosens” entrusted “Platform” to continue to conduct the map. According to Iraisat Magomedalieva, everyone who wants to change the city for the better will be able to turn to their organization: get advice and add their initiative to “Zaporizhzhia Green Map”.
