    Annex REPORT FOR 2019 UNDER THE “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA 2012 - 2020 Operational objective: A national monitoring progress report has been prepared for implementation of Measure 1.1.2. “Performing obstetric and gynaecological examinations with mobile offices in settlements with compact Roma population”. During the period 01.07—20.11.2019, a total of 2,261 prophylactic medical examinations were carried out with the four mobile gynaecological offices to uninsured persons of Roma origin and to persons with difficult access to medical facilities, as 951 women were diagnosed with diseases. The implementation of the activity for each Regional Health Inspectorate is in accordance with an order of the Minister of Health to carry out not less than 500 examinations with each mobile gynaecological office. Financial resources of BGN 12,500 were allocated for each mobile unit, totalling BGN 50,000 for the four units. During the reporting period, the mobile gynecological offices were divided into four areas: Varna (the city of Varna, the village of Kamenar, the town of Ignatievo, the village of Staro Oryahovo, the village of Sindel, the village of Dubravino, the town of Provadia, the town of Devnya, the town of Suvorovo, the village of Chernevo, the town of Valchi Dol); Silistra (Tutrakan Municipality– the town of Tutrakan, the village of Tsar Samuel, the village of Nova Cherna, the village of Staro Selo, the village of Belitsa, the village of Preslavtsi, the village of Tarnovtsi,

  • Years Annual Report 25
    25 YEARS ANNUAL REPORT INTRO 1 Pope Benedict XVI spoke of the prophecies of Fatima, saying that: “anyone who thinks that the prophetic message of the Virgin Mary of Fatima is over, has been misled.” The message of Fatima must be understood by all as a strong call to holiness to protect us from the devastation that sin and evil cause for all mankind. Namely, the separation of man from God. The prophecies of Fati- ma send a message of hope, salvation and peace if we put God at the centre of our lives. Caritas means merciful love - God’s love. We love God as we love ourselves. Whatever we do for the oppressed, we do it for God, and thus ourselves. This is why the motto of Caritas Sofia is “Christ’s love for everyone”. Caritas is one such organised forms of charity in the Catholic Church, for whom it is important to not only collect and distribute material support, but above all, with our actions and purposeful ef- Bishop Hristo Proykov forts, to listen to the voices of the sufferers. In a spirit of solidarity and charity, we are their support, Apostolic Exarch helping them to regain their dignity and to take their lives into their own hands. In his message on the World Day of the Poor, launched on 19th November 2017, Pope Francis reminded us: “We may think of the poor simply as the beneficiaries of our occasional volunteer work, or of impromptu acts of generosity that appease our conscience. However good and use- ful such acts may be for making us sensitive to people’s needs and the injustices that are often their cause, they ought to lead to a true encounter with the poor and a sharing that becomes a way of life.” In 2017, Caritas Sofia continued to build bridges with poor and vulnerable people, so that this coming together of sharing, that the Holy Father talked about, became our work and purpose.

  • Temple Reuse in Late Antique Greece
    Temple Reuse in Late Antique Greece Stefan Moffat Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Arts Degree in Classics Supervisor: Dr. Geoffrey Greatrex Department of Classics and Religious Studies Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa July 2017 © Stefan Moffat, Ottawa, Canada, 2017 Abstract The subject of this thesis is the variety of ways that temples were reused by Romans, both Christian and non-Christian, at the end of Antiquity in the present-day country of Greece. It discusses these means of reuse using principally archaeological evidence as a means of countering interpretations of the material culture that temples were either destroyed or reused as churches. These interpretations are based on the assumption that contemporary written sources such as Saints’ ‘Lives’ (the literary genre known as hagiography) are an accurate portrayal of temple reuse in Late Antiquity, without taking into consideration the legendary nature of hagiography. On the other hand, they do not account for potentially contradictory evidence of temple reuse derived from archaeological excavation. It is argued in this thesis that archaeological evidence provides an alternative outcome to that described in contemporary written sources such as hagiography, one that emphasizes practical forms of temple reuse rather than religious. The evidence for this argument is presented at both a geographic level and as discreet categories of forms of reuse of both a religious and practical nature, as a first glimpse of the nuanced image of temple reuse in Greece. Specific examples of the evidence are then cited in a number of case studies to be further developed as a valid attribute in the characterisation of the Late Antique sacred landscape at the level of the Roman Empire.

There is so much more to be explored. My journey above and below the earth has been fascinating and would not have been possible without a bursary from the College of Human Sciences at the University of South Africa (Unisa), for which I am immensely grateful. I am indebted to the following people: My supervisor, Professor Martine de Marre, Professor of Ancient History, Department of Biblical and Ancient Studies, gave me the freedom to follow karst hydrology and ancient imagination wherever I thought it flowed, offering unfamiliar texts that would assist my thinking.
