Congress

The World Abaza Congress together with the senior lecturer of ASU Maya Tsybulevskaya resumed the environmental trainings project. The first training in the new academic year was held for students of grades 5-6 of the Bzyb Secondary School No. 2.

The participants of the training discussed the problems of the modern urban and rural environment, the violation of ecosystems, air pollution, waste disposal and many other pressing environmental issues. The students actively shared their knowledge. The moderator of the training gave a presentation on the environmental pollution. The students also completed tasks with the help of which they found methods for solving problems.

The art of forging metal is one of the most ancient. For the Abkhazians, a forge is not only a workshop where tools and other objects were made. It has long been revered as a sacred place, and blacksmiths enjoyed special respect and influence in society. Today, the forge continues to be the center for preserving the craft and historical heritage. What did the dagger of the Apsil warrior look like, why are there so many references to iron in the Nart Epos, and what attracts modern youth to blacksmithing - watch the latest issue of "Living Craft".

As part of the second excursion day, representatives of the Abkhazian Diaspora from Turkey visited the hero city of Gudauta and the calling card of Abkhazia - Lake Ritsa. Most of them saw the beauty and sights of the historical Homeland for the first time.

In Gudauta, the team visited the burial site of the fallen volunteer repatriates. The guys were accompanied by members of the Chlou team.

After the end of the "Aimtsakiachara" tournament, a rich excursion program awaited the representatives of the Abkhazian Diaspora from Turkey. The guys spent the whole day in Novy Afon - they visited a cave and climbed the Iverskaya Mountain. The route was accompanied by national dances and songs.

The team was also joined by players of the Afon "Aimtsakiachara" national team. On behalf of the whole team, they presented the guests with symbolic gifts - a papaq and a dagger.
