Strengthening awareness on the impact of heating on air pollution, climate change and health

The goal of this project is to raise awareness of the impact of climate change and air pollution on health, as well as to initiate behavioral change, with a focus on heating in households.

The expected results of the project are increased awareness of local authorities and civil society organizations and the local population about the impact of climate change and air pollution on health, as well as increased awareness of citizens, especially women, young people and the elderly, about the possibilities of reducing indoor and outdoor air pollution.

Within the project, we will implement the following activities:

· Workshop for representatives of local and state authorities in charge of air pollution with a focus on municipalities that face the greatest air pollution such as: Pljevlja, Bijelo Polje, Nikšić and Podgorica, as well as state authorities, including: relevant ministries, the Protection Agency environment, CETI, Institute for Public Health, etc.

· Workshop for civil society organizations, which will bring together organizations dealing with environmental protection and human health.

· Promotional and educational campaign aimed at the general public in Montenegro.

The project is financially supported by the OSCE (Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe).
