Where to rest in August?

It is almost impossible to go anywhere for rent for the summer.

There are still six weeks before the beginning of August, but if you plan to go on vacation without a reservation may be surprised.
For those who have chosen destinations like Girona, Alicante and the Balearic Islands and almost no remaining seats available for rent, according Campaya.co.uk.
According to recent data summarizing information on nearly 50,000 properties rented throughout Europe, some of the most popular summer destinations are almost fully booked.
"We do not see any signs of an economic crisis in our industry," said Managing Director Klaas Pedersen of Campaya. "Since 60-80% of properties in some of the most popular places are already reserved, you will unfortunately have to disappoint many people in the coming weeks. "
However, hopes are not completely lost for those who prefer not to go to the hotel and to rent houses and apartments from private owners. In Portugal and the Canary Islands still available holiday villas and apartments in August, reveals site Traveldailynews.com
Chances can rent something better are greater if you decide to go in July or early September, unless you plan to go to Scandinavia.
Klaus Pedersen says that only 3300 of all 14,800 of their properties in Denmark are available after July 21. This means that it is almost impossible to rent a small house for your dream vacation, unless you're stubborn and book now.

"Learning ", or why we need global education?

What makes Bulgaria, while the world makes the analysis and evaluation of the Millennium Development Goals? Where is our role and that of our children?

What's the first thing that comes to mind when we hear the word "globalization"?

Perhaps trade, capital, movement of persons, loss of identity, and often the name of a chain of fast food restaurants that will not mention to not do advertising.

Few of us will think of global education and development education.As for the process and the concept of "global education" or "development education" is no universal definition that it fit into any narrow limits. Like a globalizing world and it is constantly changing, and changing teaching methods that do require absorption and transmission of new knowledge.You could say that global education is primarily oriented teaching methods, and commits them to the MDGs. In this sense, global education sets new requirements for teacher - he should be able to show an overall picture of the world.In a global society and economy and trans-national nature of many of the problems and solutions of young people have the necessary knowledge, skills and competencies that enable them to communicate effectively, analyze global processes to reflect on their role in global terms, can take initiatives and to believe in the ability to be agents of change for a just world."To be able to manage these processes, people should be active. Now it does not apply in today's schools," said Stanimira Hadjimitova, by the "Gender Project".The Foundation is a partner in the project "Learning," which emphasizes the promotion of global education and development education with five NGOs.The project's objective is to contribute to the process of policy formulation of international cooperation for development through activation of a transparent mechanism by introducing a global education curriculum of the Bulgarian school.Young people need to develop skills for critical thinking, decision analysis and problem-solving, and develop values ​​and attitudes for social justice and active citizenship. This project seeks to present to the Bulgarian teachers and their students to these issues of global nature, exploring the economic, ecological and social relationships between people from different places.According Hadjimitova in Bulgarian schools still can not give a clear picture of these processes.Therefore, the grouping of NGOs propose changes to the School Education Act, which would allow the institutionalization of education through the development. Not necessarily be a separate subject.In her words will be enough one hour a week in the EPA, and if the teacher was trained in advance, he can apply it at every hour of work.Thematic area of ​​"global education" would enable the teacher to introduce innovative teaching methods such as interactive games, learning by doing and experience.Proposals for changes in the law are sent to the Ministry of Education in March, the Chairman of the Committee on Education and the President of parliament. So far no answers.United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development will be held in Rio de Janeiro from 20 to 22 June with the participation of Heads of State and official representatives of member states.At a time when the international community is preparing to perform analysis and evaluation of these objectives, preparing new, in most Bulgarian schools have never heard that the world follows.How then can we expect young people in our country are committed to tackling poverty and hunger, to achieve universal primary education, promote gender equality, to reducing child mortality, etc. the eighth goal - creating a global partnership for development?Will we be so indifferent if we all knew that:"If the world was a small village where 100 people live - 50 of them would be malnourished, 67 of them are illiterate and two thirds of them are women, 24 of them will not have electricity, 33 persons will have access to clean drinking water will have a university education, 37% live with less than 1.2 dollars a day, only 7% have access to the Internet. "

The questions are - What purpose will put humanity this time, and naturally, what he would say Bulgaria?
