Bulgarian youngsters will be given the opportunity to realize their European dreams by taking part in the new competition, opened by the EC Representation in Bulgaria on Monday.

"Creating Europe" project is part of the information and communication program of the EC for 2007.

The spheres the participants will compete in are not specified as it has all left to their imagination.

The presented projects should contain a message connected to the European values and Bulgaria's development as a EU's full member state.

The winners in the two age groups will receive the prize of BGN 3 000, which will help them realize their ideas.

The head representative of the EC Michael Humphreys as well as the members of the committee - Kemal Eyup, a MP from Bulgaria's Turkish ethnic party and Dicho, a hit pop musician - were among the officials, who attended the opening ceremony.

"I would like we, Bulgarians, to take advantage of all the opportunities the EU gives us. I promise to cast my votes in favour of the most creative ideas," Dicho said.
