Clean Shumen

about the project.

The aim of Clean Shumen is to make our city the cleanest in Bulgaria using civil participation, behavioural patterns, and new technologies. We believe that the city, not only has to be cleaned but it has to remain clean in the future. Because of that we will be keeping an eye on the cleaned areas and ensure that they remain clean.
The symbiosis of all makes us believe that we can transform Shumen into a sustainable city.
