A contest has been launched for the best projects in Pan-European Children’s Environment and Health to share inspiring, innovative and concrete activities that have made a difference in improving children’s environmental health across the 53 country that comprises the Pan European Region of the World Health Organization.
DEADLINE: 27 April 2007
The contest, which is made possible thanks to the financial support of the Government of Austria aims to highlight some of the excellent projects that are helping to reduce the harm to children from environmental hazards, such as unsafe water, polluted air, injuries and chemicals. A fifth award will go to the best project managed by young people.
The five awards of 1,000 Euros each will be presented to successful applicants, 15 of whom will be invited to come to Vienna where the high-level Intergovernmental Mid Term Review Conference will take place, 11-15 June 2007.
The contest and award for best practice in Pan-European Children’s Environment and Health has been developed jointly by ISDE Austria, Health & Environment Alliance (HEAL), Eco-Forum and Women in Europe for a Common Future (WECF).
