🏢 About the local organisation

The association Eco Fun Camp was founded in 2011 by students of the Faculty of Sciences from Kragujevac. Association is a non-profit, established to work on environmental protection, education of citizens, especially children and young people about the importance of preserving and protecting the environment, education workshops and various other activities to raise awareness of the need to preserve and protect the environment.

💼 What the programme involves
