On the World Cleanup Day, the Tirana Municipality joined the action for removing litter from public areas.
Hundreds of volunteers, supported by the Tirana Municipality Cleaning Department, started a cleaning operation in the early hours, mainly close to schools and public institutions.
The Mayor of Tirana, Erion Veliaj, joined the volunteers at the Peza area, where he appreciated their commitment.
“Today we joined an initiative that takes place in 150 countries of the world. We are more interested on how it works in Albania. I am very happy that our volunteers responded to us in every corner of the city. We have organized 27 teams in 27 administrative units, focusing especially on schools, kindergartens, public spaces, etc”, Veliaj said.
The Mayor added that the city is now cleaner that it has ever been, now that the municipality’s cleaning services have extended to rural areas as well.
