Additional activities are being carried out in Konjic with the aim of increasing the separation of glass packaging waste
As part of the project "Management of glass packaging in the Western Balkans", Ekopak is undertaking additional activities in order to separate as much glass packaging waste as possible and send it for recycling. Thus, special containers for disposing of glass packaging as well as branded aprons for waiters were delivered to catering facilities in the Municipality of Konjic. Also, in order to better inform the public in Cafés and restaurants information posters were placed.
In this way, Ekopak called on to all citizens in Konjic to separate glass packaging waste and in order to contribute to the development of their municipality as a place of comfortable living in which waste management occupies an important place. Anyone who wants to get more information about the project and about separating packaging glass waste, can get it through promotional materials that are posted on bulletin boards, public institutions and restaurants, as well as in the program of Radio Konjic.
We remind you that the German Organization for International Cooperation (GIZ) and the National Alliance for Local Economic Development "Naled" from Serbia in cooperation with the system operators "Sekopak" from Serbia, "Pakomak" from Northern Macedonia and Ekopak from Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as the Association for Economic Development of Herzegovina REDAH, and the Association of Local Self-Government Units ZELS, launched this regional project - "Management of glass packaging in the Western Balkans", which will be implemented in Bosnia and Herzegovina in Bihać and Novi Travnik, Konjic and Ilidža and one of the goals is to increase the recycling rate of glass packaging in these municipalities by 20%.
