Olha Shvets lives and works in the Kryvyi Rih rural community in Donetsk Oblast.
This year, at the initiative of the young woman, the project "#Clean_Youth of Kryvyi Rih: Forming Eco-Habits Today!" was implemented as part of the DIY Community mini-grant competition, which was held under the UNICEF program and with the support of the Donetsk Regional State Administration.
Together with a team of young people, Olha organized a series of environmental trainings, developed an online game about eco-friendly lifestyles, and created awareness-raising videos.
"If everyone shows concern, it will make a difference," she says. It is with this attitude that she inspires both children and adults. Olha's efforts have been repeatedly recognized not only in her home community but also beyond. However, for the woman herself, the main reward is feedback from young people, their willingness to act and change the situation for the better.
