“Vedi without plastic”: EU heritage days
To ensure the campaign was grounded in precise local data, Environment Group conducted a comprehensive baseline evaluation tracking the scale and multi-layered impacts of plastic pollution across the Vedi region. Our team analyzed the critical environmental risks that unmanaged plastic waste introduced to regional soil quality, local water bodies, and vulnerable adjacent ecosystems. Parallel to this ecological diagnostic, the assessment evaluated the broader socio-economic repercussions of plastic accumulation, specifically detailing its negative impacts on long-term community health, local tourism potential, and municipal waste management and collection costs.
Utilizing these field findings, Environment Group developed a suite of evidence-based recommendations tailored for practical deployment at both the municipal government and grassroots community levels. These targeted intervention strategies focused on identifying clear, economically viable pathways to help local businesses and residents transition seamlessly toward sustainable, eco-friendly alternative materials. To maximize public engagement during the high-profile celebration of European Heritage Day, our experts designed a robust package of methodological and awareness-raising materials. These educational and communication assets were engineered to drive meaningful public behavioral shifts regarding plastic consumption while ensuring strict alignment with recognized international benchmarks, including the provisions of the EU Plastic Directive and UN Environment guidelines on environmental awareness strategies.
