An open-air concert in Sofia's South Park has greeted more than 30 children who took part in a bicycle tour of the Balkan region under the motto "Stop women and children trafficking before it begins."

The cyclists, who had passed through Albania, Kosovo and Macedonia will head for Romania after they tour two Bulgarian cities.

Bulgaria's leg of the race has been organized by the Norwegian Embassy, Sofia Municipality and Veliko Tarnovo Municipality.

The aim of the campaign is to put human trafficking in the limelight of public attention and to unite people's efforts with those of the institutions.
