A forum for the presentation of the National Program "The Untold Stories of Bulgarians" was held at the Bulgarian Embassy in Bucharest. "There was no more natural place for this magnificent idea to begin. The life, fate and deeds of all the greatest personalities of Bulgarian history in the 19th century are connected with Bucharest", the Bulgarian Ambassador in Bucharest Radko Vlaykov told the participants.

"The Untold Stories of Bulgarians" will be part of our extremely rich national capital", stressed Education Minister Galin Tsokov. He added that the goal is to preserve the Bulgarian language through the creation of a common digital archive and to instill in young people patriotism towards Bulgaria, regardless of where they are in the world. 


The program aims to change the model of education, students become the active party so they can tell their local stories, explained Tsokov.
