Project observer from Slovenia:

Association of Municipalities and Towns of Slovenia

Logo SOS SloveniaAssociation of Municipalities and Towns of Slovenia (SOS– Skupnost občin Slovenije) is the biggest Slovenian association representing local authorities. It was established in 1992 and currently counts 173 member municipalities (out of total of 210 Slovenian municipalities). Tasks of the Association are, in particular, implementation and representation of local communities’ common interests in proportion to coordination with legal and regulation acts, which, with their solutions, impact on municipalities’ situation. The Association works actively in the EU's COR.

SOS decided to follow project EURONET 50/50 MAX because as the biggest representative association of municipalities they understand the role of every municipality in areas such as energy and environment. Schools, being an important part of every municipality, are a major factor in general energy consuption an CO2 emissions, so it is important for SOS to support projects, that tend to make difference for the better and for the benefit of everyone.
