On 22 August, the official opening of the fifth issue of the DOR program (Diaspora, Origin, Return) will take place in Holercani.

Participants will be able to know the language, traditions and history of our country within different interactive activities, theatre workshops and excursions.

Each year, at the end of the third week of August, diaspora events are organized in order to promote the cultural and economic dialogue with the citizens who have gone abroad and to plan joint actions meant to contribute to the sustainable development of Moldova.
