The graduation of the successful graduates of the National Program of Class 2024 began with a part of the poem “Perfume” by the English poet John Donne,. After the short poetic message, the Executive Director of the Bulgarian School of Politics (BSoP) Prof. Ivan Nachev presented the certificate to each of the successful trainees under the applause of the rest of the class. The stylish celebration was held on the last day of the first month of 2025 at the elegant Kings’ Valley Medical & Spa Hotel near Kazanlak.
An achievement and an adventure. This is how the impressions of the trainees from Class 2024 of the National Program can be summarized. Among them are MPs, mayors, municipal councilors, representatives of non-governmental, professional organizations and the judiciary, leaders of civil society organizations. The stories about the funny moments, difficulties and friendships created continued like in fairy tales – for three whole days. In addition, the feverish preparation for organizing events in support of the charitable cause of the graduating class did not stop. The participants in the National Program – 2024 decided to support a rehabilitation camp for children with oncohematological diseases. In order to finance it, on February 26, 2025, the charitable exhibition “Art Heals the Golden Children” will be opened at the National Assembly with works by students from the University of Shumen. A charity ball will also be organized in April. The choice and support of a charitable cause is a tradition for each graduating class of the Bulgarian School of Politics and is a kind of continuation of the work of Dimi Panitza – a prominent philanthropist and founder of the BSoP.
