Authorities Inner Wheel and Rotarian,

dear Friends of Bulgaria and from various Countries,

first of all I apologize for my absence and I heartily thank the President of IWC Napoli Luisa Bruni Gabriella, who kindly will present a short history of this Project, where, personally, I have participated and collaborated from the beginning. A visionary project, which, even today, after six years, demonstrates its validity and vitality, capable of evolving towards additional and interesting developments.

OPENING TO SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

The opening to Sustainable Development took place during this International Colloquium, where Europe 2020 is the EU's growth strategy for this decade, having set five ambitious objectives - on employment, innovation, education, social inclusion and climate/energy - to be reached by 2020.

The United Nations World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED) in its 1987 report Our Common Future defines sustainable development: «Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs».
