The project intention is to: link ecologically focused church related organizations to each other on national level, include them to NGOs network in Belarus, secure know-how and best practice exchange on regional level (study visits to Poland and Moldova), support national and regional trainings & environmental protection campaigns & actions and pilot and demonstration projects (construction of ecological water waste cleaning systems in rural areas) and last not least to provide practical experience in project application process and building relationships with international donor organizations.

The East Foundation already successfully assisted partners in Moldova in project applications for REC SECTOR local grants (in January- February 2013). That positive experience we are sharing with 3 church related organizations in Belarus: IMCSS, Kinonia House (ecumenical training centre in Belarus), Sisterhood Union, which are involved in REC application process.
