Our very first annual report is out! This inaugural issue documents the work that we have done since we started and takes a peak into the future to see where we are headed. Download a copy for yourself and help spread the word on what re:ACT is doing! What we have heard so far from those who have seen the printed copy is that it makes reading it that much more pleasurable! So, for your reading pleasure, we would like to encourage you to print out your digital copy, bind the pages together to make a little coffee table book, read it from cover to cover and when you are done with it, print another ten and distribute it excitedly to your friends and family!

Introducing Our Networks- Expeditio, Montenegro
Daniel Lee on Fri, May 8, 2009
EXPEDITIO - Centre for Sustainable Spatial Development is a non-governmental and non-profit organisation seated in Kotor, Montenegro. EXPEDITIO was founded in 1997 by six students at their final year at the Faculty of Architecture in Belgrade with the view of enhancing architectural and visual surroundings in our region.
Today, the organization has about 350 members and has conducted numerous projects addressing different problems of sustainable spatial development. Since 2005, the organization has been represented in the Montenegrin National Council of Sustainable Development. EXPEDITIO is a member of EUROPA NOSTRA, the biggest Pan-European Federation for Heritage and one of the founders of SEE (South East European) Heritage network.
The vision of EXPEDITIO is arranged space for a better life and our mission is to encourage sustainable spatial development and enhance urban and rural areas in Montenegro through activity in the fields of cultural heritage, green architecture, urban planning and public advocacy.
Activities: Our initial activities focused on cultural heritage, with projects conducted in a small town Perast in the Bay of Boka Kotorska, where we organized summer schools of architecture and volunteer restoration camps. However, gradually our activities extended and today we deal with a wide range of topics related to spatial planning, sustainable architecture, energy efficiency in building, etc. We are especially concerned about space and its protection and management. This concern resulted in conducting several large campaigns aimed at raising public awareness of the values of space and introducing the principles of sustainable and energy efficient building. Bearing in mind our vision and mission, we try to be an active agent of the overall development of our country and we often react to urban plans or instances of construction that we see as harmful both to nature and cultural heritage and inconsistent with the principles of sustainable development. We are also very active in the publishing field. So far, we have produced 20 publications (in Montenegrin and English), 5 of which are translations of EU documents in the field of spatial development. We have cooperated in numerous projects in our region and EU countries.
Additional information on the organization can be found on www.expeditio.org .
