UN General Assembly
2019

As a member of the Human Rights Council, Bulgaria is committed to the empowerment of children with disabilities through inclusive education. Inclusive education is an essential tool for the whole process of social inclusion. In a world driven by information and communication technologies, we place particular emphasis on the opportunities offered by education. In the coming years, the European Commissioner in charge of the innovation, education and the youth sector will be from Bulgaria, which demonstrates the importance we attach to these priorities. Global health is one of the major present-day global challenges we face. Bulgaria affirms its commitment to achieving universal health coverage, as set forth in our national priorities. We welcome the timely high-level meeting on the matter, as well as the political declaration on universal health coverage and its ambitious call to action.
