The BeECO (Joint actions for environmental protection in Black Sea Basin ) project derives from the shared idea within the project consortium that common education, awareness and river clean-up campaigns to reduce river and marine litter are extremely beneficial for environmental protection in the Black Sea. Public awareness and education regarding river and marine litter problems is identified as a common issue in the Black Sea countries and BeECO project is ambitious to provide opportunities for innovative and unconventional solutions. Four NGOs unites their efforts in implementing number of activities, focused to boosting the development of environmental protection in the Black Sea countries. The BeECO project explores the opportunities for development cross border activities in the project countries and beyond by providing a vast platform for experience and knowledge sharing between NGOs, local and regional authorities, public authorities, higher education and research, education/training centre and school for jointly promotion of good environmental management practices. NGOs, local and regional authorities, public authorities, higher education and research, education/training centre and schools and general pubic will be the target groups of the project and will benefit from Educational seminars, Round Table events, Common River Clean-up activities, Capacity Building sessions and other tools developed within the project. The partners propose an innovative project that will jointly promote public awareness and education regarding river and marine litter problems and share good environmental practices for biodiversity and environmental protection in Black Sea Basin. In order to ensure the cross-border impact, sustainability and multiplier effect,  the project aims to create a BeECO IT app that will be used by any person from the partner countries.
