Global day of action on POPs in Russia: POPs in Nizhegorodskiy Oblast.
During project implementation, open lessons were conducted in schools, children's clubs and libraries of Nizhegorodskiy Oblast on POPs problems at the global and regional levels. Mass media outlets of Nizhegorodskiy Oblast and Dzerzhinsk published information materials on environmental contamination by POPs in Nizhegorodskiy Oblast and options to address the problem, using mechanisms of the Stockholm Convention. Eco-SPES specialists made topical radio broadcasts and disseminated booklets and posters with information on POPs sources. At the final stage of the project, an information picket was conducted in Nizhniy Novgorod to inform the city residents on POPs.
