Representatives of 10 civil organizations from the town and the municipality took part in it. They got acquainted with the rules for organising a marketplace and practiced their skills for presenting the organisation and formulation of good “matches”. A special movie made by the Bertelsmann Foundation about marketplaces in Germany was presented.

The participants discussed together the potential next steps for realization of the first marketplace in Targovishte. All organisations received a copy of the manual “Cooperation with business: Good business”, developed in the Netherlands by a team of civil organisations and companies and translated and adapted by the team of Tulip Foundation.

The project, is realized with the financial support of the Trust for Civil Society in Central and Eastern Europe.
