A forum dedicated to understanding and including children on the autism spectrum took place at the Sofia Library on Thursday. The event marked the World Autism Awareness Day - April 2. The discussion was preceded by the opening of the photo exhibition titled Through My Eyes and Yours which displays photos by Sevdalin Tlachenski, who is on the spectrum, and his mentor Aleksandar Nikolov.

Tlachenski said that he met with officials from the employment office to discuss the possibility of finding a job. He is expected to get involved with photography projects again, but this will not be a permanent job. According to the National Employment Agency, employers are afraid to hire him because of his relationship with Territorial Expert Medical Commissions.

Sevdalin said that he most enjoys photographing buildings, monuments, and vintage trams.

The exhibition was organized by the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy under the Human Resources Development Programme. It will be open to the public at the Sofia Library by April 12.
