This publication presents detailed analysis and well-grounded proposals drafted by AIP experts in 1998 related to the regulation of the right to information access in Bulgaria. The concepts elaborate the principles of a future law, including its purpose, who should have the right of information access, institutions that should be obliged to provide access, the scope and purpose of access to information, the exceptions to this right, and the mechanisms for providing information and for the protection of this right.
Experts who took part in the group working on the concept were: Alexander Kashumov, Gergana Jouleva, Dimitar Totev, Vesela Terzieva and Yonko Grozev from the Bulgarian Helsinki Committee, Meglena Kouneva, a lawyer from the legal department of the Council of Ministers, Konstantin Palikarski, Fany Davidova. Also, Valeri Dimitrov, Stanislava Kuyumdzieva, Ralitsa Peeva got into the discussions.

This report, prepared in 2004 using the methodology of the Access Initiative of the World Resources Institute, presents analysis of relevant legislation and assessment of characteristic cases. Experts from AIP and the „Borrowed Nature” Association evaluated the work of state institutions in four categories: provision of access to information; encouragement of public participation in the decision-making process; provision of access to justice on environmental issues; and attempts at building administrative capacity and the activeness of NGOs and citizens in exercising their rights.
The national team, working on the project in Bulgaria, comprised Alexander Kashumov, Darina Palova, Gergana Jouleva, Kiril Terzijski, and Nikolay Marekov from Access to Information Programme and Petar Radev and Stoyan Yotov from “Borrowed Nature” Association. Diana Bancheva (AIP) worked on the English version of the project resume.
Besides, Response Scores by Indicator are available. 

This report published in February 2000 outlines the condition of public registers, both from the point of view of public authorities and from information seekers. It contains a systematic overview of the regulated registers in Bulgaria. The choice of the registers studied was aimed at facilitating public access to the greatest extent, which is why we chose the registers for which the demand for information was highest.

This report outlines the implementation problems faced by public authorities and their preparedness to apply the law almost one year after its adoption. AIP and the Agency for Social Analyses conducted the survey and compiled the report, which covers tha central bodies of executive power and their territorial departments, as defined by the Administration Act and as listed in the Register of Administrative Structures. We also studied the 100 largest Bulgarian municipalities by population.
The report on this survey is published within the frame of the project Advocacy for the implementation of APIA and judicial review with the finical support of the Open Society Foundation - Sofia.
