The SILA-IWCL bazaar is one of the most popular pre-holiday events in the capital. It is a bazaar where women from the Association of Wives of Foreign Businessmen and Diplomats in Slovenia sell unique products from their home countries, i.e. from all over the world. This year, in addition to the products, many other exotic surprises await us.
If in previous years we bought products of all kinds from all over the world at the Economic Exhibition, this year the women from the SILA-IWCL association (this year the SILA association got a new, internationally recognizable suffix IWCL) are inviting us for the first time to hall of Hotel Union. At the charity bazaar, in which as many as 32 member states will participate, we will be able to buy even more unique products than in previous years, as well as other exotic sweets.
News brought by the 23rd SILA-IWCL bazaar
It will be in a special hall this year tasting of prepared exotic dishes, which we can otherwise try only on distant trips or in specialized restaurants, but on a special stage we will be able to enjoy singing and dancing international performances. Among other things, we will be able to see Saudi Arabian, Irish and cowboy dances and around 20 other cultural points.
All proceeds go to charity
As every year, the proceeds of all sold products will be donated to charity. The aid this time goes to five non-profit institutions that help women and children, victims of violence, namely the SOS Society, the Society for Nonviolent Communication, the Asylum Center for Minor Refugees, the Ema Institute and the Association against Sexual Abuse.
