In Veliko Tarnovo this summer, for the 23rd consecutive year, young women from all around Bulgaria came together to collaborate and encourage one another. The participants represented 15 different locations around Bulgaria.
Our group of youth educators successfully implemented the revised approach developed with input from participants from previous years. All the exercises focused on the students and were designed to be engaging, boosting the students' communication abilities and encouraging the girls to venture outside their comfort zones and into their true potential. This year's curriculum included new workshops on stress management, practical life skills such as sewing and travel planning in addition to the usual fare of communication, goal setting, leadership, and self-confidence.
Participants and peer-trainers collaborated on a large-scale social effort in the city of Veliko Tarnovo aimed at promoting the ecological education and raising the public awareness on recycling.
