The reason is the International Human Rights Week, which begins on November 25 with a focus on children's rights and ends on December 10 with an emphasis on human rights. During the visit, special attention was paid to the prevention of violence against women, which is a big problem for Bulgarian society. According to data from the Animus Association and the Ministry of the Interior, every third woman in Bulgaria is a victim of violence.
