📋 Tender Overview
Representatives of the Ministry of Environmental Protection signed contracts today with civil sector organizations that received funding this year in the Public Competition of the Ministry for financing and co-financing projects of public interest in the field of environmental protection. Funds were approved for projects of 71 organizations from all over Serbia in the amount of 50 million dinars, which confirms that the state recognizes and invests in projects that have concrete results and a long-term impact on the quality and improvement of the state of the environment. Todays signing of contracts with organizations from all over Serbia is a clear message that the Ministry of Environmental Protection remains firmly committed to supporting civil sector projects that have a positive impact on the environment. We highly appreciate the interest, dedication, and expertise of civil society organizations that significantly contribute to the development of ecological awareness and the improvement of the state of the environment through their work. These organizations are our partners and another bridge of cooperation with local governments. Through their work, they make a significant contribution to the preservation of nature and the strengthening of ecological awareness in our country, and we provide them with the necessary support to turn their best ideas into concrete results on the ground, said State Secretary Adam Sukalo. This year, projects focused on biodiversity conservation, waste management, circular economy, climate change, environmental education, and the development of green infrastructure were supported. The Ministry of Environmental Protection will continue to support civil society organizations in the coming period, because without local engagement at all levels, there can be no creation of new standards in ecology. Cooperation between institutions and civil society is important, and we will strive to support all organizations whose goal is to improve the state of the environment in the coming period, emphasized Sukalo.
