ON THE ACTIVITIES DEVOTED TO THE WORLD OZONE DAY IN ALBANIA – 16 September 2021

On the 16th of September 2021, the painting exhibition “My European City” was organized by the National Ozone Unit in cooperation with “ABC TIRANA CLUB” and “Europa House – EU Delegation in Tirana”. 43 paintings of the students of “Edith Durham” secondary school and “Turgut Ӧzal” College of Tirana were presented in this exhibition. What stood out in these works was the appeal that the pupils addressed to parents and teachers: “Save Ozone; Save Earth; Save our City”.  In the children’s paintings prevailed their love for a healthier life, their desire to protect the ozone layer and their city, and the message for a common effort toward this direction. This exhibition was conducted under the supervision of a devoted teacher of Figurative Art, Ms. Ermira Qosja and a well-known Albanian painter Ms. Silvana Maranaku. Then, an award ceremony took place. All participants were awarded certificates and diplomas.

At the end of this event, Mr. Johan Muka, Executive Director of “ABC TIRANA CLUB”, emphasized that the activities organized in collaboration with NOU, apart from the information that the students acquired on the Ozone Layer, Vienna Convention and Montreal Protocol, an inspiring atmosphere was created for the youth, which made them happy by becoming a part of the world-wide effort on the protection of the Ozone layer.
