ECO-PROJECTS EERcomt is located near to a former military camp, now on, a park without clear legal identity; nowadays it is claimed by many public and private bodies, which are arguing about its final formation. WE are trying to promote the idea of developing the area to one of the largest city-parks and to promote this idea across the citizens where the green is less and the pollution elevated. Our planned activities are sports & artistic events and campaigns about the park and its hidden treasures! Since Autumn 2019 we are trying to include those activities to ESC. We also started on claiming our participation to several local Eco-campaign activities of PavlosMelas Municipality of Thessaloniki Region (in which region we belong). https://karatasoupark.org Exhibitions EERcomt has to show very few regular Outdoor activities and more rarely Exhibitions were our Members have the chance to expose their sport or artistic talent through team work or independently.
