Cleanups

Since 2018 the Green Office is facilitating clean up events at the Beaches in Vlissingen and at the Binnenhaven, inspired by Monique Jankowski’s efforts with her organization “Doe Mee, verlos de zee!”. The whole initiative is based on volunteers, so we need you! For this, the Green Office invites everyone to join in the efforts towards a healthy environment at and around the University and in the city of Vlissingen. To achieve that the Green Office works together with the Municipality of Vlissingen, which is providing materials like trash pickers, bags, and opportunity for disposal of the collected trash. To help Rijkwaterstaat to gain an insight into the plastic litter distribution on the coasts of the East and Western Scheldt, integrated monitoring events will be carried out in conjunction with the Clean-ups. This is your chance to participate in scientific research, contribute to a better understanding of Litter distribution and future efforts to keep the local beaches clean.
The Clean-ups are scheduled as you can see below. However, it can change depending on the weather, holidays or exams periods. To always be up to date about this week’s clean-up visit our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/hzgreenoffice/
You don’t need to bring anything to participate but appropriate clothing. The Clean-ups, together with other Green Office activities, are a chance to gain some extra credits for students of the Hz while connecting to new people and making a step towards a healthier environment.
The whole initiative is based on volunteers, so every Volunteer is welcome to Join our efforts!
We are excited to welcome you at our Clean ups!
