Every year, about 150 children are trained to develop creative projects of distinguished teachers in the fields of science, art and new technologies. We are the first Bulgarian organization among the other 49 countries, admitted to the prestigious international organization ECHA, which has been working in the field of talent development for 31 years. At the conference in Italy I had the opportunity to present our numerous projects and initiatives, as well as our program "Annual awards, scholarships and honors", through which we have been helping many years talents from all over Bulgaria. Our laureates are one of the most successful children and young people in Bulgaria. We have helped the participation and excellent performance of many young Bulgarians at prestigious international competitions, contests, olympiads and other forums for expression. At the international forum we also showed our experience in creating, organizing and conducting national and regional competitions, tournaments, contests and competitions that stimulate children's gifts in the fields of mathematics, informatics and new technologies, literature and fine arts; we introduced our charity work and our work with talented children in need. The feedback from the conference participants gave us the assurance that we are moving in the right direction and can be compared to the best. We dream of more support and assistance from the Bulgarian institutions and the state in the name of its future development of our children" said Mrs. Liliana Slavova.
