Promenade Project 2006 A new initiative was born this year due to a small group of zealous Hungarian women, called the Promenade Group: in the heart of Budapest a „Promenade for Women” will be established by planting the first 5 trees on the 18th of October. The main idea behind the project is to draw attention to those women who work for the development of civil society and whose examples are usually stay unknown by the majority. These women devote their free time to establishing non-profit webpages dealing with environmental protection, they set up funds to help the disabled, and they make their best to help those in need. Promenade Group aims to start a tradition of honouring these women with a tree in the Promenade each year. The winners are selected carefully by a professional jury from among the applicants. Starting only this year more than 100 applicants competed for the unusual award. The Group is dreaming of going international: this year a similar project was set up in Poland called Akcja Akacia. Partners from all over the world are welcome to take part and found their own promenades. If interested, please write to: soosviki@gmail.com . Let women with great achivements recognized all over the world!
