The Youth Centre "Zahari Stoyanov" in the town of Dobrich, Northeastern Bulgaria, is organizing a folklore meeting of communities on the occasion of the International Day of Tolerance. The aim of the event, which will take place from today to 17 November this year, is to educate and inspire participants to embrace and practice tolerance in their personal and public lives.


There will also be a Culinary Fair for the communities. Participants will share traditional garments and cultural traditions of their ethnic groups. There will also be a concert with performers from the communities represented to promote cultural exchange, tolerance and understanding between people of different backgrounds.


The folklore gathering brings together different cultural communities to present their heritage through music, dance, traditional costumes and customs, organisers say.
