Talks with unaccompanied children

We talked about the culture of Bulgaria with unaccompanied minors from Afghanistan. We presented information about the traditions, customs, and holidays in Bulgaria. We discussed the cultural specifics with the children - what makes us different, but also what unites us. The children were interested in the traditions and folklore holidays of Bulgaria.
The activity was organized as part of the project “Raising the awareness of the Bulgarian society and migrant communities in Bulgaria,” funded by the National Program of Bulgaria under the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund 2014–2020.
