Our Planet is Our Home. Let’s Make It Clean!’ Campaign was launched

15 September, 2022, Chisinau.

A new campaign – “Our Planet, Our Home. Let’s Make It Clean!” – funded by the European Union and developed by the UN Environment Programme was launched in the Republic of Moldova. The campaign aims to present young Moldovans with solutions for living more sustainably while improving their health and saving money.

The campaign is aligned with the World Clean Up Day 2022 initiative, marked this year on September 17 as well as policies under development in the Republic of Moldova. The World Cleanup Day 2022 unites millions of volunteers, governments and organisations in 191 countries, to tackle the global waste problem and build up the new and sustainable world. This year, the Republic of Moldova will also join this initiative. Moldovan officials, representatives of diplomatic missions, civic activists, and young people will organize major clean-up actions in their localities, thus raising awareness on waste challenge and supporting the global climate movement. In addition, the campaign “Our Planet, Our Home. Let’s Make It Clean!” also resonates with the messages of World Car Free Day, marked on September 22.

Within the campaign, short animations as well as sets of cards for social media are being shared via social and traditional media. All materials produced within the campaign are available in Romanian, Russian and English and will become accessible on a dedicated page on the EU4Moldova website as well as on social media as the campaign is rolled out.
