Contact GREEN TRIPS

Green trips are service provided by the Association Sunce as a part of the business plan, "Green trips- Workshops in the nature under the educational guidance of the Association Sunce” implementation. For the implementation of this business plan NESsT approved a support in the form of financial support and mentoring of the further development of social enterprise. With the activities provided by the business plan we started in June 2012, and the realization of the first Greens trip is planned for fall 2012. Green trips will be organized by the Association Sunce in cooperation with travel agencies. It will be organized in Dalmatia and include a visit some of the protected areas.

They are primarily intended for the education of elementary school students about the different ecosystems. Today, ecosystems are endangered, although we are often not even aware of it, as we are sometimes not even aware of all the services that we provide specific ecosystem and what is their actual value. Ecosystems of certain rivers, lakes, meadows, mountains, forests, wetlands, sea, and source of every day are endangered and the question is how much they need to cross over the edge.
Through the Green trips, students learn about the characteristics of each ecosystem, the services provided by specific ecosystem, and threats to which they are exposed. Also, fundamental goal of the Green trips is to learn students on principles of environmentally responsible behavior and encourage their practice in daily life. In the future, Green trips will be organized to other target groups, international tourists, retirees, pre-school children, etc.
