🌊 We’re thrilled to share that Impactrip played a key role in the installation of the first Eco Container for marine waste in Omiš as part of the "From River to the Sea - Let's Be Plastic Free" initiative! 🌍

This container will be a vital tool for our Marine Conservation volunteers during their ocean cleanup efforts. Thanks to their hard work, we've already collected an impressive 789 kg of waste in Omiš alone. Together, we’re making waves in the fight against ocean pollution. Let’s keep our seas clean! 💙♻️

🌟 Porto is a beautiful city, but it faces serious challenges. Homelessness, migration, limited access to social services, economic instability, inadequate housing, and the search for employment all make the path to dignity and stability steep for many. 🌆💔

Community Support plays a pivotal role in fostering resilience, inclusivity, and collective well-being in Portugal. There's no one-size-fits-all solution to poverty or social risk, which is why our volunteers assist with various initiatives to provide different types of support.

Together, we can build a more inclusive and resilient Porto. Join us and make a real difference in our community! 🤝❤️

🌿✨ Explore Sustainable Farming in Italy! 🇮🇹

In Italy, social agriculture has been around for ages, but it's really taken off in the last decade. This approach focuses on biodiversity, which means healthier soil, less erosion, and smarter water use. 🌍🌱

But it's not just about the environment—social farming also benefits a diverse range of people. Individuals with disabilities, those unemployed, students, and children all benefit. It's about building a sustainable future and improving lives across Italy. 🌾🤝

🏙️Barcelona is now a safe haven for thousands of migrants and refugees seeking protection from conflict and poverty. Despite their resilience and courage, these newcomers face significant challenges:

High Vulnerability - Many arrive with limited resources and support networks.
Language Barriers - Learning Catalan and Spanish is essential for integration but can be a daunting task.
Social Isolation - Without a community, it's hard to build a new life in a foreign land.

🫂Local organizations are stepping up to provide crucial support through language classes, social activities, and empowerment programs. But there's still much work to be done.

🤝 Join Us in raising awareness and supporting these incredible individuals. Together, we can help them build a brighter future and integrate successfully into Catalan society.

Restore and Rebuild Challenge: Healing Our Forests 🌳🔥

In light of the devastating wildfires that have impacted Greece, Portugal and Spain due to high temperatures, it's crucial for us to come together and take action to restore our forests and support the affected communities. Join us in this challenge to contribute to the recovery efforts and protect our environment:

1. 🌱 Forest Cleanup: Organize a visit to a fire-affected forest or natural area. Coordinate with local authorities or environmental organizations to ensure a safe and effective cleanup operation. Remove debris, clear paths, and restore the natural beauty of the area. Share your experience and encourage others to get involved in restoring our precious forests.

2. 🌿 Tree Planting: Connect with local NGOs or initiatives that focus on tree planting and reforestation efforts. Participate in their tree planting events or organize one yourself. Planting new trees is a meaningful way to replenish the forest's vitality and restore habitats for wildlife. Share your tree planting experience, educate others about the importance of reforestation, and inspire them to take action.

3. 🤝 Support Affected Communities: Reach out to organizations or individuals working on providing aid and support to the communities impacted by the wildfires. Offer your time, resources, or donations to help rebuild homes, shelters, and infrastructure. Every contribution makes a difference in helping these communities recover and move forward.

Share your insights, before and after photos, and the impact you've made during our Sharing Circle. Together, let's stand united to restore our forests, support affected communities, and prevent future wildfires.

This challenge continues until our next Sharing Circle, so let's roll up our sleeves, make a difference, and ensure a greener, healthier future for Greece and our planet. 🌍🌳

EMBRACE THE BEACH CLEANUP CHALLENGE! 🙌🚮

Did you know beach pollution affects more than 800 species of wildlife around the world?
When you pick up that one piece of litter at the beach, that means one less piece of litter could end up in the ocean. Beach cleanups work in the same way, but can make a bigger difference.

1. ⏰Spend up to 30 minutes at the beach: At some point this week, spend some time at the beach enjoying the sunshine and ocean!!

2. 🏖️Do a beach cleanup: While you're soaking up the sun, keep any eye out for any litter you see and properly dispose of it in the correct bins.

3. 📸Send us pictures of what you found: We'd love to see how your beach cleanups go, so send us pictures during your cleanup and then after send us what you found!!

Share your experiences, tips, and insights during our Sharing Circle. Together, let's discover the rejuvenating benefits of beach cleanups while making a positive impact on our environment.

The challenge is on until our next Sharing Circle, so embrace the beach cleanup challenge and feel the invigorating power while contributing to a more sustainable future! 🌴🚮
