Introduction
As we described on our page So that the municipality is not only for citizens , the best way to convince the unconvinced is through good examples .
a list of the regions of our beautiful country and their district towns for you . If we found any, we've added examples of how it's possible.
If you help to implement change in your area, or if this has already happened, we will be happy to add the name of your municipality/city to the Board of Honor .
Just send us a link to an article with photos where this change is described. It would be best if it were the website of your municipality, your region, the media, or the website of an association/organization. We would like it to be a change that has been made and a report about it has been published somewhere. That is the best – an example and a report – THAT'S IT !
Just write to kvetoucilouka@cmelaciplus.cs . Please write "Blooming Meadow - name of the region - name of the district - name of the municipality or city where the change was successful" in the subject line.
Thank you for helping citizens, nature and yourself!
