Slovak Environment Agency Launches Clean Air Campaign for Children and Schools

Banska Bystrica, 21 September (TASR) - The Slovak Environment Agency (SAZP) has launched an awareness campaign on air quality, focusing on children and school communities, which will include several challenges with the aim of raising awareness about the need for clean air, SAZP's marketing head Roman Lebeda has told TASR. The campaign, entitled 'Something's in the Air', will run throughout the school year, offering parents, students and teachers a new task each month. "The purpose of these challenges is to encourage people to reflect on what we breathe, where we breathe it and how we can positively influence air quality," explained campaign coordinator Veronika Parickova. The programme will introduce six thematic areas and ten challenges, revealed gradually at the beginning of each month. After completing a challenge, participants will be able to submit their results via an online form and enter a monthly draw to win a 'greenfluencer' package. A final prize draw will be held at the close of the campaign next July. tim/df/ko
