We are a non-profit civil society organization, a community of young people united around the idea of environmental protection and sustainable development of the Carpathian Euroregion.
The organization is officially registered in Ukraine (EDRPOU code 26386402).
Youth Public Environmental Organization “Our Home—Manyava” is one of the first youth environmental organizations of Bogorodchany Districts, established in 2003. We actively participate in environmental protection, engage residents, including young people, in joint actions, and form a new generation of environmental activists.
Our NGO's history started in 2003. Three students and two teachers of the Manyava school decided to join their efforts to preserve the village's nature. On May 25, 2003, we implemented our initiative and created the first youth public environmental organization in the Bohorodchany district – “Our Home – Manyava.”
No challenges stop us. We are moving forward, strengthening our partnership with residents, local governments, and civil society institutions to achieve our organization's goals and priorities and the development of the Carpathian Euroregion.
