BACKGROUND:
In July 2021, we published an Open Call titled Empowering environmentally-friendly initiatives: for best short video (Vlog) on Circular Economy, with the aim of inviting young people in the Western Balkan region to share their own stories or shed light on their contribution to circular economy/environment for example: reducing food waste; recycling and reusing of material such as paper, plastic, glass, wood, furniture, technological devices, etc; re-using or donating clothes to family, friends, people in need or second-hand shops; reusing of material for creating artistic products; saving energy, water and natural resources; protecting/maintaining a clean environment; recycling waste, amongst others.
Vlogs, up to 3 minutes long, recorded on mobile phone, or camera and in a landscape orientation and at least 640 X 480 resolution, in local language or in English were submitted by interested young people until August 2021.
The best three video logs (country/regional) will be awarded a symbolic prize:
1. 150 euros
2. 100 euros
3. 50 euros
