The GREEN IDEAS
program is aimed at supporting citizens united in the development of green entrepreneurial ideas in Serbia. By green entrepreneurial ideas we mean innovative ideas that apply technologies and knowledge of the business sector to organize and jointly solve social problems, relying on community resources and protecting the environment in the function of sustainable development.
Within the program three donations of 5,000.00 US dollars each are awarded in the open call to citizens’ associations, foundations, endowments, cooperatives, and companies that plan to become solidarity entrepreneurs or are beginners in solidarity entrepreneurship.
Although this year’s final of the #GREEN IDEAS
competition was held in an online format, the jury, as always, had a challenging task – to choose the 3 best green ideas that will be supported with $ 5,000 each.
