The 3rd edition of the ecological competition Eko Gwiazda/Jawor has been concluded. The jury assessed the work of students from secondary schools in Jawor, Legnica, Świdnica and Wałbrzych and selected the winner.

During this year’s edition of the competition, participants recorded short films in which they explained how they handled garbage on a daily basis and how they applied the five basic principles of the “Zero Waste” idea. Over a dozen teams from 10 schools in Jawor, Legnica, Świdnica and Wałbrzych entered the competition. All the works creatively paid attention to the state of the environment and presented appropriate ways of dealing with rubbish.
