We re-affirm our goal of achieving full implementation of these principles as a matter of urgency and commit to:
1. Develop organization-specific strategies to prevent and respond to traffic in human beings and sexual exploitation and abuse. These would include time-bound, measurable indicators of progress to enable our organizations and others to monitor our performance.
2. Incorporate our standards on traffic in human beings and sexual exploitation and abuse in induction materials and training courses for our personnel.
3. Prevent perpetrators of traffic in human beings and sexual exploitation and abuse from being (re-)hired or (re-)deployed. This could include use of background and criminal reference checks.
4. Ensure that complaint mechanisms for reporting traffic in human beings and sexual exploitation and abuse are accessible and that focal points for receiving complaints understand how to discharge their duties.
5. Take appropriate action to the best of our abilities to protect persons from retaliation where allegations of traffic in human beings and sexual exploitation and abuse are reported.

Our main partners are Junior Achievement Bulgaria, WWF Bulgaria, Wind of Change. We are also part of international networks such as YOUNGO and FYEG.
We strongly believe that humanity can change and deal with climate change. But if we want that to happen we should work in all possible ways to keep the global temperatures well below 1.5 degrees Celsius. The ideological framework of the Ecological Manifesto is much in line with the concept of the Deep Ecology Movement of Arne Naess. We appreciate technology and its potential but we prefer to change the morals of the people for the better so that technology can be managed properly and used only to ease our lives or solve problems.
Main activities of “Ecological Manifesto – ManEco” are:
- raising awareness events such as movie screenings, photo exhibitions and discussions;
- projects – environmental education, sustainable tourism
- research on topics such as climate change, conflicts, ecological diplomacy, recycling, sustainability, circular and shared economy, youth;
- consulting on topics like climate change, carbon footprint, just transition, circular economy and green entrepreneurship
- work with youth – trainings, youth exchanges
We can represent the ALF Network in the country or if there are more organizations part of it we can be coordinators and encourage them to be more active. We can share opportunities and experience through our channels of communication and encourage people to be more involved in related topics.
ALF Network is chance for us to meet like minded organizations, form new partnerships, be inspired with new ideas, adopt new practices and provide new opportunities for Bulgarian citizens and youth.

The association “Europe on the move” is a Bulgarian non-government organization situated in Sofia. The members of our organization are 10 young people. The Association is structured as follows General Assembly which consists of all active members of the association; Board which consists of three persons - chairman, vice-chairman and secretary, and Chairman. The budgetary resources available in the last year were around 20 000 euro. Our main partners involved in the organization's projects are organization such as Association Attadamoun pour le Développement & le Partenariat (AADP) – Morocco, Step up Youth Initiative – Egypt, Salfeet Information and Communication Center “SIRAJ” – Palestine, Association For Non Formal Education – Poland and Mladinski Center Dravinsjke Doline – Slovenia. The sources of funding for the realization of the activities of the association are donations and sponsorship, incomes from programs and projects funded by domestic and international organizations, revenues from additional economic activity, etc.
Our association is trying to create a productive environment of collaboration within organizations at a local, national and European level. We hope to attract more attention to issues such as active citizenship, promotion of European values and sustainable development by making and participating in European projects. We seek more accessible and understandable information about different European donor programs and funds. We hope this is the way to support local and regional authorities in the improvement of their absorption capacities. Unfortunately when seeking financing from European funds, non-government organizations and business often aren’t prepared enough to elaborate projects of good quality. One of our basic objectives is to overcome these difficulties when developing social-aware project ideas. Seminars, conferences, round tables and training courses are some of the informal methods we will use to achieve our goals.
A basic part of our principles are collaboration, mutual trust, freedom of expression and opinions, enterprising, creativity and innovations. We had the opportunity to put them into practice through the elaboration of our first project – “Volunteering can be fun. The project was a response to the need for more active actions in the field of volunteerism, given that the latter is declared priority of the European Commission for 2011. Moreover, it was in line with the priorities of the “Youth in Action” programme for cultural diversity and for promoting youth participation in public life and democratic process. The project created a favorable environment for international exchange of volunteer skills and practices among young people, keen to promote European values. The participants had the opportunity through non-formal educational methods to develop their own skills for preparing European projects, which they applied later on local level through their organization.
