| Résumé: | The Holy Monastery of Chrysopigi in Chania, Crete (Greece), has been putting into action a wide-ranging programme for the protection of the environment. There are various environmental activities, which are organized by the sisterhood for school and university students, and other groups of people. Hundreds of young people who participate can experience nature as they walk the stone paths to cave chapels for the Divine Liturgy, as they discover the springs, as they visit the workshops, as they plant trees and release birds in the monastic biotope, which is a refuge for wild birds, too. In addition, they are able to participate in the programmes being held in the Environmental Education Centre (EEC) of the Monastery. In the EEC, students have computer access to information concerning the protection of the environment. Their interest in further investigation and their sensitization about environmental issues are also nurtured through various activities. |
