Community-Organizing-Leadership Successes

The twelve communities participating in Ökotárs' newest program closed the first year of their joint work in June. During this time, the community supported by ComOrgLead in Gyál achieved that the local government revisited the problem of the public lighting and installed new street lamps at several points of the town and moved existing ones to places where they serve the transport better than they used to. Due to a petition of the inhabitants of Bódvaszilas receiving national publicity, the community was on the right paths to the reconstruction of their roads full of impassionable potholes. The community in Őr achieved with persistent work that the bus service between the village and two other neighboring settlements and Mátészalka - affecting almost 7000 people - was expanded and as a result it is working more in line with the train service connecting these places into the national transport network.
