Gardens of the Future, an impressive plan to build community gardens in the heart of Cyprus’ cities, is this week one stop closer to becoming a reality.
The initiative already has the support of the Nicosia municipality, and has been chosen as the number one project by Cypriot online platform Pusula, after it published an open call for ideas. Money for the project, €50,000, is available for the winning project from the World Bank, and this week the winning team sent its expression of interest to the bank which has the final say in the funding.
