The training is designed to raise awareness of environmental issues, empower community members on how they can take action, and inform them of how the Visegrad+ Project can support their actions. The training, led by project partner Ekopolis (Slovakia) will use V4 countries as an example, sharing lessons from the region about environmental protection, sustainable growth, and transferring environmental strengths to economic potential. Ekopolis will also inform participants about opportunities to continue learning from V4 countries and encourage them to design regionally collaborate projects. http://rdfg.ge/what-we-do/visegrad-fund/
