Can a bilateral cooperation project in Bulgaria say something in general about the value of international cooperation regarding domestic and gender-based violence?

From December 2020 until February 2022, PULSE Foundation and the Centre for the Study of Democracy, both Bulgarian NGOs, together with the Norwegian non-profit foundation Human Rights Academy cooperated in a project about gender-based and domestic violence in Bulgaria. The aim was to develop a methodology for monitoring policy, legal instruments, and institutional practice in relation to such violence, and – by using the new methodology – to write a monitoring report about the current situation.

All services of the PULSE Foundation are available to people who have found refuge in Bulgaria.

On February 23, 2022, the young people from the Youth Club "To be friends" in partnership with BRCY - Pernik, Municipal Youth Council - Pernik and the Center for Safe Internet organized an event dedicated to Pink T-shirt Day, focusing on school and online bullying.
