Statement from North Corfu Municipality:
North Corfu Municipality is at the forefront of efforts to promote and develop circular economy and green sustainable development and received the 1st Green Award for "Recycling Programme with sorting at source in collaboration with volunteers or NGOs" in the category "Awards for 1st Level Local Authority Organisations" at The Economist Metropolitan Summit in Thessaloniki.
