The Centre for Environmental Education, with the support of the City of Košice and NATUR-PACK, provides a FREE educational programme for pupils and students on proper waste management.
Thanks to interesting content and interactive elements, younger generations will learn more about waste management and environmental protection in an attractive way.
You will be guided through the lecture by our experienced lecturer, Mgr. Ľubomíra Brzová.
The Centre was established in 2007 as one of the many activities of KOSIT a.s. in cooperation with the KOSIT Foundation. Primarily, the CEV offers children and youth experiential education in the field of ecological waste treatment with an emphasis on its material and energy recovery. The aim of the centre's programme is to inspire in young people a favourable attitude towards environmental protection.
We are aware of our social responsibility in educating the next generation. CEV's main objective is therefore to spread awareness in one of the key areas in relation to sustainability and a green future for the planet. More than 55 thousand children have received education at the Environmental Education Centre so far, with 1,500 children participating in the online programme during the pandemic period.
Appointments need to be arranged via the online booking form.
Programme and background information:
During the interactive lecture, participants will learn, for example, how much waste we produce annually in Slovakia, what are the principles of proper waste sorting, what impact our consumer behaviour has on climate change, why it is already necessary to adopt new habits towards a circular economy, how polluted our country is with waste and how waste can be converted into energy and heat.
The content also includes "instructions" on what each of us can do to create less waste, sort the waste we produce, help nature and prevent pollution.
In order to accommodate the requests for excursions from as many schools as possible and to give the opportunity to visit the CEV also to those classes and groups that could not get to the centre due to the limited capacity, the following rules were applied for the entrance:
These documents must be signed by both the children's legal guardians and the teachers and must be handed to the designated staff member before entering the ZEVO and CEV.
The Environmental Education Centre has been supported by NATUR-PACK for a long time, which has been fully funding the bus transport of CEV visitors since 2016. THANK YOU!
