Liana,
The Environmental Activist
I’m Liana, and I’ve been an environmental activist in Romania (Southeastern Europe) since 2003.
Throughout time I’ve built many environmental projects. Among them, two mass civic engagements in my home country:” Let’s Do It, Romania!” (2010) – country cleanup and” We Plant Good Deeds in Romania” (2011) – national afforestation movements.
Both initiatives exist to this day, and together they are involving millions of people, cleaning up millions of pounds of trash or planting millions of trees in my home country.
This is my powerful legacy for my country.
”I'm here to share my knowledge about making mass community projects happen. Let’s change the world through community projects!
