Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 there will be not the ceremony of the 102nd Anniversary of the Proclamation of the Republic of Latvia, but authors of the best works will receive their prizes by post. A remote webinar will be held for the three municipalities involved in the project to provide information and education on the Sustainable Development Goals and the opportunities for municipalities to get involved in achieving these goals, about the further cooperation of Preili, Nizhyn and Ozurgeti municipalities, exchanging of experience and the best examples. In order to inform the general public about SDGs, a video will be created for posting on municipal websites.
