Beach cleanup activities organized to raise environmental awareness during the summer months are being implemented by the Vice Prime Ministry, Ministry of Tourism, Culture, Youth, and Environment. This project, continuing this year, actively engages environmentally conscious youth.
The cleanup efforts are taking place in five different areas: Famagusta, Iskele, Yeni Boğaziçi, Lefke/Gemikonağı, and Tatlısu. Teams of volunteer youth are working to enhance community environmental awareness and ensure the cleanliness of the shores.
Conducted in two sessions each day, in the morning and evening, the cleanup efforts not only clean the beaches heavily used during the summer months but also make them more orderly. The teams are taking significant steps towards protecting the environment by collecting waste accumulated along the shores.
The goal of this project is not only to physically clean the shores but also to create environmental awareness within the community, making everyone more sensitive to nature. The cleanup efforts also contribute to the widespread dissemination of environmental protection consciousness in society.
Participating youth receive training aimed at raising awareness about environmental protection, in addition to collecting waste from the shores. The importance of such activities during the summer season increases due to the heavy use of beaches.
