Education tolerance, respect for other cultures and ethnicities is a primordial bridge in building a democratic society. Both in education and in the social environment there are serious gaps in addressing diversity, which is based mainly on stereotypes. This problem occurs including the lack of a scientific and methodological support in addressing teaching and teaching ethno-cultural diversity. EU experience shows that namely through research and the sharing of ethnicities co-existing in Member States and many European nations can be overcome inter-ethnic conflicts and can contribute to the prosperity of communities and states.

The right to non-discrimination is a right to any legal entity / a subject to be a bearer of rights equal to the rights set out in the regulations under one and the same conditions, coupled with achieving and safeguarding the measure of freedom and the equality in dignity. Therefore any difference created based on discriminatory sign would entail a violation of this law. The protection of the right of non-discrimination is a guaranteed law opportunity to protect a subject when deprived of the constitutionally established right. The question of burden of proof is a matter for the consequences of unproven. Objectively, the burden of proof is to the right and obligation of the determining authority to announce as undelivered that legal consequence, whose legal fact is not proven. In the final result due to the burden of proof the solution will appear as a sanction against the party that claims renounced legal consequence, and as protection to the party, which has challenged the denied legal effect by the court. This impact on the legal rights of the parties implies the subjective nature of the burden of proof. Its very name originates from the adverse consequences of unproven to the party claiming legal consequence but unsubstantiated by fact. The study presented discusses some issues of proving the burden of proof in the proceedings for protection of discrimination through the examples of Bulgarian law and experience.

Modern times are characterized by the rediscovery of religion as a factor in human life. Many different forms of religiosity are updated, revive and thrive. This return to religion, however, not only has a positive effect. Modern religious reality is multifaceted and reveals both the best and the worst of human nature. New religious movements and their invasion and expansion are probably one of the most surprising events of the twentieth century and early twenty-first century and the third millennium. For the last three or four generations the new religious movements are deployed in multinational and global scale and have become significant cultural, social, religious and political factors. The paper makes analyses of contemporary challenges before the humanity from the point of view of the influence of regions and poses some significant questions to future sustainable development. The paper includes as a supplement “Common ground and differences of view between the Bretton Woods institutions (World Bank and IMF) and the World Council of Churches (WCC)” - translated in Bulgarian summary of the current situation of the discussions between the management of the Bretton Woods Institutions (BW Institutions) and the WCC facing what has been identified as a common basis and (in brackets) differences in viewpoints. The study reflects the "work in progress" in the ongoing dialogue between the three organizations. Central to the common ground is the clarification of common concern on the fight against poverty - an important task of the dialogue between institutions and BW-WCC is the need to increase the effectiveness of the efforts to reduce poverty.
