On 1 December 2005, Sofia Distance Learning Center hosted a videoconference dedicated to the World AIDS Day. The videoconference linked young people in different geographic locations - Algeria, Bulgaria, Bosnia, Ukraine, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Moldova, Syria, USA and Russia, who shared information, best practices, and lessons learned in HIV/AIDS prevention.
Dr. Thoraya Obaid, Executive Director of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and UN under Secretary General, was guest at the virtual meeting.
