BTA's Europe on Balkans: Cohesion Skills Conference highlights education as one of the factors that helps the development of both Veliko Tarnovo and Bulgaria, said Veliko Tarnovo Mayor Daniel Panov at the conference in Veliko Tarnovo on Monday.
"Spirituality has existed since the Second Bulgarian Empire. Our town deserves this event to take place here", Panov stressed, adding that Tarnovo shows the entire Bulgarian people that its history and historical landmarks are preserved. "We popularize the town thanks to the heritage," he noted.
According to him, a factor for the development of education is the philosophy of the European Union, which unites peoples precisely with education and spirituality. "Let this example, which we will all talk about on the Feast of Saint Euthymius of Tarnovo, be the topic of other scientific conferences as well," Panov stressed.
Through this initiative, BTA aims to raise public awareness and foster open dialogue about cohesion policy, local achievements, and the implementation of the EU's policy priorities. Between November 2024 and September 2025, BTA will host discussions at its press clubs in the following cities: Blagoevgrad, Burgas, Varna, Veliko Tarnovo, Vidin, Vratsa, Gabrovo, Dobrich, Kazanlak, Kardzhali, Kyustendil, Lovech, Montana, Pazardzhik, Pernik, Pleven, Razgrad, Ruse, Samokov, Svishtov, Sliven, Smolyan, Sofia, Stara Zagora, Troyan, Targovishte, Haskovo, Shumen, and Yambol. Cross-border conferences will be held in Belgrade, Bosilegrad, Bucharest, Edirne, Skopje, and Thessaloniki. The project builds on the Europe in the Balkans: A Common Future and Europe in Bulgaria: A Common Future projects, implemented by BTA in 2023 and 2024, respectively.
