Croatia and Montenegro allocate funds for playground upgrade and youth science projects

The city of Pula in Croatia received a grant of €10,000 to renovate the children's playground on Divkovićeva Street, with work expected to finish within a month. The project replaces old equipment with new installations to improve safety and accessibility for local families and nearby kindergarten children.

Montenegro's Ministry of Education, Science and Innovation signed contracts to fund 16 projects promoting science and research among children and youth, allocating a total of €50,000. The supported activities include workshops, courses, science schools, competitions and educational programs aimed at fostering a research mindset and interest in innovation across pre‑school to secondary school levels.
