The next, ninth eco-marathon of Norilsk Nickel under the motto "Rushed into art" starts on June 9. Traditionally, one of the largest volunteer projects will bring together thousands of initiative employees from six regions of the company's activities.
The eventful program includes three stages and will last from June to October. Participants will have creative events, quests, workshops, meetings with like-minded people and the opportunity to implement their own eco-projects under the guidance of experts.
In the final, the volunteers will make a video about their participation in the project.
The winners of the eco-marathon will be awarded Norilsk Nickel certificates for charitable purposes and team building, the company's press service reported.
