Achievements (EN):

The project aimed at jointly raising public awareness regarding river and marine litter problems through joint actions meant to reduce it. Special attention was paid in order to promote ecological behaviour among the youth. The project also aimed at strengthening community action and at involving the local population in the promotion and implementation of cross-border Black Sea Basin coastal and river clean-up campaigns and sharing good experiences in this field in reducing and eliminating of litter. In order to achieve this objective, the project activities were grouped into three main parts: 1. Better cooperation of organisations in the Black Sea Basin: 5 partners have prepared a Study of Good effective working international practices in their countries. The results from the survey were further taken over in the Guide with the best international practices. Focus groups were established for waste management, illegal dumping and landfill sites on riverbanks/protection of important natural areas from water pollution. A joint platform for signalisation for wastes and illegal dumping sites was created and is available at: https://marlenablacksea.eu/. 2. Strengthening the capacity of locally interested organisations: Two-day trainings were organised in Malko Tarnovo, Bulgaria and Demirkoy, Turkiye, as well as four-day study visits, aiming at capacity-building trainings of the local authorities and good practice exchanges based on the analysis of the existing situation on-the-spot. 3. Activities for increasing public awareness: River and sea-coast clean-up and informational campaigns, organisation of eco actions and eco camps were organised to raise awareness of the importance of a clean environment. Small-scale investments in Malko Tarnovo, Bulgaria (purchase of equipment such as specialised waste separation machine, containers etc.) and the small-scale works in Demirkoy (removal of illegal landfill sites on the riverbank of Bulanik River) contributed to the overall objective of reducing waste in the Black Sea region.
