NSA will host the First Water Bridge on the occasion of World Water Day

The National Sports Academy will act as a coordination center of the first edition of an innovative event devoted to the World Water Day – 22 March.

The so called Water Bridge is intended as an Internet-based event that will gather ten Bulgarian and four European, American and Russian universities. The participants will share their experience, good practices and ideas on reasonable and responsible use of water resources.

The virtual event will be held on 22 March, 2012 in Aula Maxima Hall of the National Sports Academy. The official opening is planned for 2:00 p.m.

Main goals of the forum are to increase the public awareness on the topic, especially among young people, and to initiate the establishment of a Blue Cluster – an international structure that will spread out an Ethic code, urging to responsible policy in terms of water exploitation, sustainable activities and healthy lifestyle.
