On 27.04.2022 a discussion was held with students from Plovdiv University P. Hilendarski, dedicated to human rights. The discussion was part of the project "In defense of human rights", which is financed by the Bulgarian Active Citizens Fund under the Financial Mechanism of the European Economic Area 2014 - 2021.

Main topics of discussion were the phenomenon of domestic violence, sexual violence and human trafficking. It was noticed that specifically domestic violence and sexual violence in Bulgaria is only discussed from the perspective of their physical forms, and much more unrecognizable and even controversial are the perfidious and even non-verbal forms of violence that are difficult to identify, as from both the victims and the protection authorities.
