Sarajevo, 18 August 2026 - During the Sarajevo Film Festival, thousands of citizens and visitors from Bosnia and Herzegovina and around the world fill the streets of Sarajevo every day. Among them are Ekopak's eco patrols, once again engaging with festival visitors and promoting the importance of packaging waste recycling.

At festival locations, the eco patrols collect packaging waste, distribute informational leaflets, and speak with citizens and tourists about the importance of recycling. The initiative has attracted considerable attention, with many visitors stopping to ask questions and enthusiastically supporting the campaign.

The positive response demonstrates that major public events, in addition to their cultural and social significance, also provide an excellent opportunity to encourage positive habits and raise awareness about recycling.

The eco patrols are part of Ekopak's ongoing activities aimed at educating the public and supporting the development of a culture of separate packaging waste collection. Once again, the Sarajevo Film Festival has shown that culture, community, and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand.

Ekopak would like to thank all the citizens and visitors of Sarajevo who support our eco patrols and help ensure that increasing quantities of collected packaging waste are directed to recycling.
