At EcoVisio, we are used to working on projects that help build a sustainable future — green, fair, and safe. In this post we told the story of our colleague and friend Anna from Kyiv who works with the Ukrainian Social Venture Fund, the country's first venture philanthropy fund, which helps social enterprises grow and benefit people and the planet. |

| Inspiration at the EcoLocal market: meeting producers and sustainable ideas |
|
|
On August 2, a study visit took place to exchange experiences at the EcoLocal market in Chișinău—a unique space where small producers, lovers of organic products, and sustainable business ideas come together. This visit was not only an opportunity to exchange experiences, but also a source of inspiration for new ideas for developing our own businesses, with a focus on ecology and locality.

| Training on "Teaching SDGs to Children" |
|
|
During two inspiring days (August 7 and 8) at EcoVillage Moldova, teachers discovered what Sustainable Development Goals are and how they can explain them to children in a simple, friendly, and meaningful way. They talked about the power of stories and how each narrative can bring about change, analyzed the mechanisms of stories, and, of course, created stories adapted to different age groups that convey meaning, inspiration, and joy to children. More details and photos here.

| Seminar for teachers who have previously participated in our educational activities |
|
|
We gathered 15 teachers for a training session to explore what it means to provide quality environmental education, what its objectives are, and what magic ingredients are needed to guide a group of students toward environmentally responsible behavior. The team of facilitators invited participants to discover how being in nature can be an impactful educational activity, how trusting students and oneself can have major effects on the learning process.

A group of teachers from Moldova, together with the EcoVisio team, participated in a study visit dedicated to school social businesses—an innovative concept through which students acquire entrepreneurial and managerial skills right from their school desks. Over the course of five days, together with partners from Georgia, Armenia, and Ukraine, we explored best practices directly from initiatives such as Business@Schools, Clara Grün, IMMS (IHK), IW Junior, and Querstadtein.

| The "A poster for a more protected environment" campaign is in full swing! |
|
|
On the 21st and 23rd, two events took place as part of the social poster campaign: a discussion about small actions that protect the environment and how they can be part of a poster, and a practical workshop on creating them. The group discovered the directions of the campaign, the elements of the social poster, what differentiates it from the commercial poster, and tips for arranging the content and message on the page. Towards the end, all participants came out with the first sketches of their future posters. See more details here and apply with your poster in the "Opportunities: get involved!" section ⬇️ |

| Start the change in your household! |
|
|
In many villages in Moldova, the lack of clear solutions means that waste is burned in gardens or dumped on the outskirts of towns. However, there is no need to wait for modern infrastructure; change can start with you: collect plastic and paper in one place, bottles separately, and organic waste in a bucket for compost. Find out more about separate collection points here.
