”It should be known all over the globe what bothers our Planet!”

With the cooperation with the South Bačka district and among-municipalities working group for environment protection and sustainable development in the South Bačka district and along with the support of the Provincial Secretary for environment protection and sustainable development and Art project Earth from England, “Environment Engineering Group“ successfully realized an art contest titled “Let It be Known Around The World What Harms Our Planet“, that was open in the period from the 22nd of April until the 15th of July 2009.

 

The contest was open to all pupils of elementary and secondary schools on the territory of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina.

 

The pupils drew inspiration for their works from one of the following topics:  

v      What harms our Planet?

v      Climate changes and their influence on me/everyone of us?

v      Man VS Nature

v      Energy efficiency and renewable energy resources 

v      Together towards energy efficiency in our homes/houses?

 

1411 works from 106 schools from the whole territory of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina were received at the contest.

 

The works were categorized and evaluated in the following groups:

 

-        Younger elementary school pupils: from 1st to 4th elementary school grade;

-        Older elementary school pupils: from 5th to 8th elementary school grade;

-        Secondary school pupils: from 1st to 4th elementary school grade;

 

The most successful pupils and teachers were given valuable prizes and commendations and their works were exhibited in the Hall of Executive Council of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina in the period from the 16th to the  20th of November 2009.

 

Money prizes for the first three places in each of the categories were provided by “Art Project Earth“ from England.

The list of the awarded works, commended works and the works that were exhibited in the Hall of the Executive Council of the Autonomous Province Vojvodina the 16th – the 20th of Novemeber, 2009

 

A great interest of elementary and secondary school pupils in this art contest, two times so far organized by “Environment Engineering Group”, and the quality of the works received, show that the youth intensively think about the ways of environment protection and that they are able to convey their ideas with a lot of talent and creativity.

 

Organizing an art contest devoted to environment protection and sustainable development is to become one of the traditional activities done by “Environment Engineering Group” with cooperation with the Provincial Secretariat for environment protection and sustainable development, the South Bačka administrative district and among-municipalities working group for environment protection and sustainable development in the South Bačka district as well as with many other partners.
