On the occasion of 29 April The European Day of Solidarity between Generations Tulip Foundation and the National Network for Children organised a public discussion “Solidarity between Generations”. The discussion took place on 25 April at the Informational centre of the European Union in Sofia and was kindly hosted by the representative Office of the European Commission in Bulgaria.

The aim of the discussion was to provoke a conversation about the different forms and the idea of solidarity between generations in everyday life as well as the links between different generations at present times. Circa 35 people from Bulgarian academy of science, Silver Fall Club at Charity Association Donka Paprikova, young people with disabilities form St. Mina Day Centre, students from HIAB and others participated in the event. Representatives of the Bulgarian National radio and Classic FM programmes also took part. The participants shared their comments about what we have learned from the generations before and after us. Very interesting was the discussion about the relations and solidarity between generations in Bulgarian proverbs and sayings.

The discussion was one of the first events organised by local civil organisations in numerous places in Bulgaria the days around 29 April.
