Composting

The project considered the following activities: first, the information raising activity against the burning the leaves has been carried out by creating and distributing the informational flyers in two languages (Armenian and Georgian) and second the installation of 10 composters (8 in the village Samshvilde and 2 in the neighbouring village Daghet). 

It should be mentioned that installation works related to composters have been done by the local youth voluntarily.
