Green Commune Belica

Our Association for Belica Community Development’ (ABCD) is a rural community with a shared mission – sustainable development of the village. In the past 17 years, the association focused almost all its efforts on building new, and reviving old village infrastructure, and has so far renovated many objects, reconstructed village streets, rebuilt and expanded the old school building, conducted numerous community initiatives, and organized many traditional cultural events to protect and promote the cultural heritage and the natural wealth of Belica and the region.

We reconstructed the old school building and transformed it into an operational regional educational eco-center that serves to educate, connect, and empower our community, and also assist and engage the communities in our region. A 20KW Photo-Voltaic clean energy production system installed on the rooftop and two 7.5KW inverter air conditioners make this place energy efficient and self-sustainable. We are a pioneering energy community in Macedonia and are assisting other initiatives to replicate our model and contribute to the transition.
