At the Berehovo Public Center “Everyone Can Help,” eco-activists hosted an educational session for children focused on stork conservation. With the storks soon beginning their mass migration to Africa for the winter, the session aimed to raise awareness about the challenges these birds face during their long journey. Additionally, the session highlighted the plight of storks that, due to injury or other reasons, will be unable to join the migration and will stay behind in Ukraine throughout the winter.
Motivational eco-educational posters and stickers have appeared on the interior walls of the Spiritual Center of St. John Paul II in the village of Antalovtsi, encouraging visitors to treat the environment as God’s creation responsibly.
