Who we are

Youth Public Environmental Organization “Our Home—Manyava” is one of the first youth environmental organizations of the Bogorodchany District, 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.

In 2003, three students and two teachers from Manyava School decided to come together to protect the village's nature. On May 25, the first youth public-environmental organization in the Bohorodchany district was born: “Our Home—Manyava.”
Since then, we have faced every challenge head-on. Together with local residents, local authorities, and NGOs, we implement environmental projects and campaigns, nurture a new generation of activists, and contribute to the sustainable development of the Carpathian Euroregion.
