Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
Students in Prilep, North Macedonia, completed a project called “Young People for Green Transition. From Urban Garden to Eco-Product” with a public event.
Students from secondary school “Orde Chopeła” and primary schools “Blaze Koneski”, “Kliment Ohridski”, and “Manču Matak” from Krivogaštani showcased their work at an “Art Happening” in Prilep’s city park. They displayed handmade crafts made from waste materials, produce grown in the school garden, and compost.
The project aimed to demonstrate that food can be produced in urban environments using organic methods. The NGO “Zokum” from Prilep trained high school students, who then shared their knowledge with younger students. The training covered organic production and new technologies, putting circular economy principles into practice by reducing waste and promoting recycling. Students also created plant pots from plastic bottles for the school’s eco-garden and presented products from the school bakery.
The project was carried out by “People in Need” with financial support from the European Union.
