Intervention for more usable spaces in "Nazim Kokollari" school in Prizren
NGO "EC Ma Ndryshe" today realized an activity with the students of the school "Nazim Kokollari" in the park of the school. The interventions that have been carried out in this area have come as a result of the students' requests in the meetings held with EC a week ago.
Initially, a bicycle parking lot was placed, which according to the students was a very necessary intervention since the school did not have one and the number of students who use bicycles is high. The purpose of setting up this parking lot is the greater promotion of environmental protection through reducing pollution and increasing physical activity for these students.
After the first part, the students were divided into groups and continued with other activities. Together with some students, an action of planting seedlings and seasonal flowers was carried out, and each student was given the opportunity to write their name on the planted sapling in order to encourage them for personal commitment to the care and maintenance that should be shown to these seedlings. The importance of planting saplings/plants is very great as they help to fight global warming by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. They also create habitats for many species and help our physical and mental health.
Seasonal flowers have also been planted on some reused tires, in order to convey the message of reusing materials and not throwing them away. In addition to these interventions, the existing playground in the school yard was also painted, with the aim of creating a more creative space.
