The PALETA Eco-Centre is a civic association engaged in ecological education with a special focus on activities affecting children and adolescents. Since 2004 it has been a regional coordinator of the environmental upbringing, education and enlightenment of the Pardubice Region.
The PALETA Eco-Centre has a rich offer of programmes focused on creative activities using natural materials (sheep wool, bee wax, hand-made paper), knowledge of natural laws and eco-systems, global problems, relation of man to the environment or dealing with problems related to waste separation and recycling. For this purpose it operates specialised classrooms – with live animals, textile puppets for nurseries, with a loom, etc.
In addition to its seat in Pardubice, the PALETA Eco-Centre also has branches in Chrudim and at Oucmanice (near Brandýs nad Orlicí).
