Kriva Palanka – With a lecture for young people on the application of various types of alternative transport and a hiking tour through the Osogovo Mountains, the European House – Kriva Palanka marked European Mobility Week.

– We carry out activities with and for young people to mark all significant dates that can raise their awareness and contribute to positive changes in various fields. On the occasion of European Mobility Week, today young people learned about the benefits of walking, cycling, or using an electric moped, instead of using cars, which on one hand is much more economical, on the other hand, does not affect the environment, and additional benefits and health advantages benefit the young people themselves, say from the European House Kriva Palanka.

At the event, the need to reduce means of transport was pointed out, for greater road safety, less noise, less air pollution, and a better quality of life. – In order to encourage people to walk and cycle more often, there should be more high-quality dedicated infrastructure and traffic rules that prioritize pedestrians and cyclists. Public authorities have tools to implement changes in policies and infrastructure that support a permanent transition to sustainable mobility. But we must emphasize, the cities we live in are shaped by the individual choices we make, so we need to work together to improve the shared public space, point out the European House Kriva Palanka.

The central activity on the occasion of European Mobility Week, organized by the European House, was the event “Eco-hiking: Let’s explore alternative types of mobility” which took place yesterday. The event was organized in collaboration with the mountaineering-sports club “Kalin Kamen” from Kriva Palanka who led the hiking route through the recreational trail “Stanecki Waterfalls”, viewing the beautiful landscapes in the villages of Stanici and Durachka Reka, a short training for young beginners who want to hike and climb to the tourist site Kalin Kamen. About 50 participants attended, young people from Kriva Palanka, as well as mountaineers from Kumanovo and Skopje. (September 23)
