The first known civilization in the region was that of the Thracians, whose culture reached a peak in the sixth century B.C. Because of disunity, in the ensuing centuries Thracian territory was occupied successively by the Greeks, Persians, Macedonians, and Romans. A Thracian kingdom still existed under the Roman Empire until the first century A.D., when Thrace was incorporated into the empire, and Serditsa was established as a trading center on the site of the modern Bulgarian capital, Sofia.

  • BREAD HOUSES NETWORK BULGARIA BREAD (FOR SOCIAL CHANGE) CULTURAL ROUTE “Travel with a Mission”
    BREAD HOUSES NETWORK BULGARIA BREAD (FOR SOCIAL CHANGE) CULTURAL ROUTE “Travel with a mission” The Bread Cultural Route "Travel with a mission" is not a tourist attraction but a destination of experiences. It was developed by Dr. Nadezhda Savova–Grigorova, cultural anthropologist awarded as “Traveler with a Mission of the Year 2012” by the global National Geographic for having travelled 76 countries exploring their bread traditions and helping communities through her “bread therapy” methods. The Bread Cultural Route integrates the categories of cultural, social and green alternative tourism, offering tourists interactive activities that leave them with lasting emotional memory from their vacation in Bulgaria. The route passes through the socio-cultural centers Bread House, part of the Bread Houses Network Bulgaria (www.breadhousesnetwork.org; www.bread.bg) in six cities with rich history and traditions (Veliko Turnovo, Gabrovo, Plovdiv, Koprivshtitsa, Stara Zagora, Sofia). In each house the tourists will master different recipes for the preparation of traditional bread and pastry products and as part of our innovative method for community baking called "Theater of crumbs" they will recreate impressions from each city by drawing in flour and creating sculptures/symbols and out of dough based on local intriguing stories about the bread, the old ovens and bakers and general history of the city, researched and narrated by the leader in every house. Optionally, group kneading may be arranged in a mixed group with disadvantaged people who we assist in every city (nursing homes, orphanages, children and adults with disabilities), which is a unique opportunity for tourists to "travel with a mission" to meet with people in need and create unforgettable emotional ties.

  • THE ESSETERRE CO-IMPACT STORY Melissa Planting
    Rebuilding Bulgaria THE ESSETERRE CO-IMPACT STORY Melissa planting A New and Different Chapter for Bulgaria Bulgaria is a country rich with opportunity, but it has faced challenges in reaching its full potential. Bulgaria is part of the European Union (EU), but has one of the lowest GDP in the EU—with nearly a quarter of its population living at or below the global poverty line—and is experiencing at present the most extreme population decline in the world. Sadly, each year emigration erases dozens of towns from Bulgaria’s map. High death and low birth rates are also significant factors in depopulation, but lack of opportunity is the primary driver for this migration away from the country. As the nation’s men and women search for jobs abroad, severe structural and industrial decay become increasingly common. Experts on distribution of EU funds cite the high concentration of investments and resources in certain regions at the expense of others as a contributing factor to lagging infrastructure and a diminishing population. Before the fall of Communism, Bulgaria was not only produces some of the world’s best Lavender and an active industrial nation, it also had some of the Melissa. Its sunny and dry climate during harvest world’s preeminent essential oil research, development, coupled with dry, well-drained, sandy soils are ideal for and production.

    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,

  • The Radiological Impact of Hot Beta-Particles from the Chernobyl Fallout: Risk Assessment" September 1993; Tjujgaria
    T INTERNATIONAL ATOMIC ENERGY AGENCY RCM "The Radiological Impact of Hot Beta-Particles from the Chernobyl Fallout: Risk Assessment" September 1993; TjuJgaria INVESTIGATION ON THE DISTRIBUTION AND THE EVOLUTION OF HOT PARTICLES IN BULGARIA AFTER THE CHERNOBYL ACCIDENT S. Bogoeva, Ts. Bonchev, E. Dinolova*, K. Dinolova, F. Helal, T. Rida, T. Semova, V. Vinchev, S. Vladimirov Faculty of Physics, Sofia University, 1126 Sofia, Bulgaria * Institute of Applied Mineralogy, Sofia This paper, printed in brief in the Kiev meeting proceedings^.concerns an attempt to find the distribution of the hot particles activity in air for the days 1-7 May 1986 when their concentration was the highest one. With that end in view autoradiographs of air filters are used. In principle it would be expected that the hot particles formed at the time of the Chernobyl accident will follow the logarithmic-normal distribution law in radiuses concerning particles obtained by grinding of solid substances. This is confirmed by the extensive studies of Georgi et allJ2! from many samples of various regions in Europe. The probability density of that distribution is given by: III where: r - the radius, and the main parameters are: lnr median - /;„ = e mean value - r - r ,e* Hm As the activity of one particle, A, is proportional to its volume it follows that for the activity distribution in /I/ A> would be replaced by r. In fact Kritidistin 2\ Mandjukov et a\l\Q and our results presented later set up that in the probability density HI must be put A rather than A' . At present we can not give the explanation of that fact which most probably is due to the hot particles separation in activity in the process of their deposition.
