site.btaExhibition about Prominent Bessarabian Bulgarians to Visit All Schools in Taraclia Region

A photo-documentary exhibition about the Bulgarians living in Moldova and Ukraine was organized by the education administration of Taraclia Region in Moldova. The motto of the exhibition is A nation that forgets its history has no future! A nation without a past is not a nation! The signs present portraits of prominent personalities as well as brief information about their activities.

The first visitors to the exhibition were students from the Ivan Vazov Lyceum in Taraclia. Between November 5 and 7, the children, together with their Bulgarian language teachers, learned of lives and deeds of Alexander Teodorov-Balan, Alexander Malinov, Petar Burlak-Vulkanov and others.

Lilia Sarsaman, head of the education administration, stressed that the exhibition is mobile, "so that as many children and young people as possible can see it, so that they remember our activists or have yet to get to know them". She added that both children and teachers were appreciative of the exhibition, that it is utilized in schools as guide and motivates students to become researchers themselves.
