BSEU Joins Rowan Alley Planting Campaign in Writers' Park

On 5 November, a rowan alley was planted in Writers' Park near the National Library of Belarus. The campaign is dedicated to the Year of the Belarusian Woman and was organised on the initiative of the Union of Writers of Belarus. BSEU was represented by more than 50 students of the Faculty of Commerce and Tourism Industry (FCTI), along with lecturers and dormitory staff.
The work began with preparing the planting material: under the guidance of Stanislav Adamovich Konstantinovich, First Deputy Chairman of the Belarusian Society for Nature Conservation, and Professor Konstantin Fyodorovich Saevich, who served as the campaign's responsible coordinator, more than 80 rowan saplings were prepared. Some were planted directly in Writers' Park, while the rest will be passed on to other sites — so the alley near the National Library will be only the beginning of a broader urban greening effort.
Representatives of various organisations worked side by side on site: the Belarusian Union of Composers, the Belarusian Union of Cinematographers, the Belarusian Society for Nature Conservation, literary museums of Minsk, the Belarusian Public Association of Veterans, the Republican State Public Association «Belarusian Society «Znanie»», the BSEU-FCTI Literary Association, the student lecture group of the «Znanie» Society, and the Minszkzelensztroj municipal production enterprise.
Working alongside the students on the planting were Maria Leonidovna Zenkova, Dean of the FCTI, and Deputy Deans Irina Vladimirovna Prygun and Pavel Alexandrovich Litvinov.
After the planting was completed, Daria Mikhailovna Kononova, a FCTI student and head of both the BSEU-FCTI Literary Association and the student lecture group of the «Znanie» Society, addressed the participants. She thanked the leadership of the Union of Writers of Belarus, the «Znanie» Society and the Belarusian Society for Nature Conservation for their attention and support for students.
Responsible coordinator Professor Konstantin Fyodorovich Saevich noted the well-coordinated work of all public organisations and the university, and thanked everyone for their active participation.
May the newly planted alley delight Minsk residents and guests of the city — and may Minsk become greener and cosier with it!
