EU funds are the resources of the citizens of the European Union, which are used to implement the public policies of the European Union. Each of these policies sets certain goals that are to be achieved through financing through EU funds. There are many different EU funds and each of them is specific - with specific goals and intended for specific users. There are many entrepreneurs in the Republic of Croatia who started and improved their business with the help of EU funds, and the Development Agency of Šibenik-Knin County has implemented and is still implementing many projects. Since the Adriatic Sea is one of the natural heritage of Šibenik-Knin County, a project was designed for its preservation and maintenance. Namely, the project would be called Clean Adriatic Sea - Clean Šibenik-Knin County and its goal would be to reduce waste in the sea, but also on the coast. Unfortunately, there are more and more people who do not protect the environment and pollute the land and sea, which is why the situation in that area is getting worse. This is precisely why such a project would be ideal for improving the current situation, and one of the ways of implementing the project could be funds from EU funds.
