BBF team kindly invites you on December 4th – 9th from 12.00 to 18.00 in Debut gallery (62 Vasil Levski Bld.)

to the Exhibition of the Green Belt Photo Contest Winners'. Some pleasant surprises will wait for you there ….

BBF will announce for the third time the competition for financing of the students’ masters’ thesis in the field of biodiversity conversation and protected areas management. All students from Bulgarian Universities could apply with project proposals, if they are in the scope of the competition:

• protection of the world threatened species;
• management of protected areas; 
• mechanisms for sustainable use of nature resources; 
• eco-tourism development, bio-agriculture, etc.
• nature-conservation education

I pledge to do the following simple things to protect the Black Sea environment:

1. Every time I go to the beach I will remove all my garbage and at least one piece of litter that doesn’t belong to me.

2. I will try to conserve water by:
- Repairing my toilet if it is running all the time
- Turning off the tap when I am brushing my teeth
- Showering for one minute less
- Not running the water all the time when I am washing the dishes.

For the first time the new exhibition of Kaliakra Visitors center in Bulgarevo will be presented to the general public.

BBF team will use the International Black Sea Day to acquaint the local people with the richness and the problems of the Black Sea.

On October 31^th 2 groups of pupils and 1 group of students will visited the Center and will study for the fishes, dolphins and seals. For sure the interactive installations and interesting presented information will involve the kids and make them real friends of the sea. In the afternoon will be the celebration for the “older” people, who will have a chance to watch the new actual film – “The cry of the Sea”. The authors of the film are Tzvetelina Atanasova and Valentin Gonevski from BNT.

More than 200 delegates from 37 national Governments, the European Commission, five UN organizations, 88 NGOs and private companies debated ways to activate the full potential and capacity of the Union. Among them were 4 representatives of BBF. Participants set the stage for a process to develop a vision for European nature beyond 2010. The participants called for seeing nature and its services as the foundation for economic and social welfare. The meeting was also important for the further development of the Union’s activities in Europe.
