  • Land reconstruction of green surfaces in Palilula Municipality residential quarters.

After the initiative of Palilula Municipality and in the cooperation with Center for social work `Sveti Sava` and `Department for children, social and primary health protection` in Nis the action ` Land reconstruction of green surfaces in residential quarters in Palilula Municipality` has started at this municipal territory.

For this occasion president Novakovic introduced media representatives with the results of reconstruction of `Bozidarceva` street that was just one month ago just one ugly place. `With this action and following the model `think global-act local`, we wanted to provide work for one number of the most socially  threatened people of our municipality – people who were left without job, but are capable of work, as well as to contribute to reconstruction of life space in our settlements` –emphasized Novakovic. In this way we took the active part in ecological activities `To clean, to green (ozeleniti-to green, Nis, part of the word)-as a part of worldwide campaign `Clean the world- clean Serbia`.

Boban Mikic, Municipal council, emphasizes that currently at this voluntary work 27 people are engaged. Palilula Municipality provided the all the necessary tools and machines. The manager of the for social work `Sveti Sava` Zoran Jovic is satisfied with the cooperation and expressed his best thoughts about the initiative of Palilula Municipality to help the inhabitants of Palilula and in the same time to clean and green the area in these Palilula parts. The people- beneficiaries of the services of social work `Sveti Sava`  have the obligation to fulfill 600 hours of voluntary work hours. Monthly it is 100 hours. With this voluntary work, that was organized by Palilula Municipality, they will gain the right on certain compensation. This project has been in realization since 2004 and up to now it has given only great results.
