A clean up exercise in the hills outside Madrid was followed by a splendid lunch for all who participated on 19 September. In the evening, Inés and María hosted an awards ceremony in downtown Madrid with the president of the association.

Many of Paisaje Limpio’s supporters and partners were recognised for their contribution to the past and ongoing success of the organisation and presented with a commemorative plaque made of recovered plastic waste in the shape of the Paisaje Limpio logo.

The Clean Europe Network was recognised for its contribution to international cooperation in the fight against litter.

In turn, Johanna Ragnartz and Eamonn Bates presented gifts to the Paisaje Limpio team and a framed certificate of recognition for Paisaje Limpio’s valued contribution and loyalty to the Network over the years.
