If you have any suggestions or questions about the C:F Chapters Network or if you want to open a C:F Chapter
in your school, we would love to hear from you! Do contact Zhikica Pagovski, the C:F Chapter Network President at

The idea of C:F Chapters was proposed by Zhikica Pagovski, the current Chapter Network president, as a call to focus global efforts in local regions. Although a new initiative, the C:F Chapters are already busy with organizing inspiring and educational meetings in local institutions, sharing insights about the C:F Competition, and facilitating all other efforts of the think tank. Each chapter innovates and implements sustainability initiatives and is also involved in the implementation phase of global projects run in cooperation with other chapters.
