Turistica Once Again Joins the PIRAN IZMENJUJE (PIRAN SWAPS) Initiative
This year, UP FTŠ Turistica is once again taking part in the traditional PIRAN IZMENJUJE initiative, organised by the public utility company Okolje Piran as part of the European Week for Waste Reduction. The initiative promotes the reuse of items, waste reduction, and environmentally responsible behaviour.
From 9 to 18 November 2026, Turistica will once again be collecting second-hand clothes and other items that are still in good condition and suitable for reuse. For this purpose, we have placed a collection box on the ground floor of the faculty, to the left of the staircase, where you can drop off your donations.
We are collecting:
-
clothing and footwear,
-
toys and board games,
-
books and school supplies,
-
bags and fashion accessories,
-
household textiles,
-
sports equipment and items for hobbies and leisure activities.
We invite students, staff, and all visitors to the faculty to look through their wardrobes and donate items they no longer need but that could bring joy to someone else.
The highlight of the initiative will be the PIRAN IZMENJUJE swap event, which, for the first time this year, will take place over two days, on 20 and 21 November 2026, from 9:00 to 18:00 at Grando, the former salt warehouse in Portorož.
Join us and help extend the life of reusable items!
What one person no longer needs could be a real treasure to someone else.
