Mission Statement
The Center for Sustainable Policies Ecopolis is a non-governmental environmental organization, established with the clear aim of making the principles of sustainable development into law. This means that we are going beyond the stage of more or less productive debates about the problems faced by the environment in our country and we are trying to channel our energy towards finding and promoting solutions at the level of public policies in Romania. It's a long road, but the only one worth going. It starts with the aggregation and development of expertise, of those who understand what the development of sustainable public policies entails in a country like Romania. It continues with the monitoring of problematic areas and the elaboration of legislative proposals - solutions. The promotion of these solutions is done primarily by obtaining the vote of the citizens, following a constant effort of education and accountability. From here, the natural path of the Ecopolis initiatives goes through the authorities, from whom we will insist on obtaining a responsible attitude and the public policies that the environment in Romania needs. Ecopolis therefore means continuous effort and collaboration between recognised experts in the field of environment and sustainable development involved in our projects; then, between the organisation and the citizens, on whose participation the legitimacy of any proposed public measure is based; and especially between the organisation and the authorities, who are responsible for implementing those policies voted by experts and citizens alike. Ecopolis is built in a participatory way, with every individual who wants the discussions about the environment and "green" activism to have at the center not only valuable ecological beliefs and principles but above all concrete solutions to problems, with the potential of viable public policies. Sustainable policies become reality with the participation of citizens who care!
