Conference on the Western Outlands Brings Together Diplomats, Scholars and Public Figures in Sofia and Kyustendil
Published
A conference on the Western Outlands is being held in Sofia and Kyustendil. It is organised by the Institute for the Study of the Western Outlands and one other institution. Diplomats, scholars and public figures have come to the event to discuss the topic.
The Western Outlands are a region in south-western Bulgaria. It includes parts of the present-day regions of Kyustendil, Pernik and Blagoevgrad. The conference is important for people interested in the history, culture and development of this area. Participants share their research and ideas, and the meetings provide an opportunity for discussion between specialists and representatives of various organisations.
This year the conference is taking place in two cities, which makes it possible for people from Kyustendil to take part, and not only from the capital. The organisers emphasise the importance of dialogue between the academic community, state institutions and citizens.
The conference shows that the topic of the Western Outlands remains relevant for Bulgaria. More information about the programme and participants can be found on the organisers' websites.
