Bulgaria’s research vessel Sv. Sv. Kiril i Metodii (RSV 421) hosted scientific discussions on polar research and climate change on Tuesday as part of Bulgaria’s programme at the UN Climate Change Conference COP31 in Antalya.
The event brought together representatives of Sofia University, the Bulgarian Antarctic Institute, international polar research organisations and Turkish scientists. Participants included European Polar Board Executive Secretary Maria Grigoratou, British Antarctic Survey researcher Jose Xavier, Turkish Polar Programme representative Dogac Isiler and energy and climate expert Julian Popov.
Discussions focused on the importance of international scientific cooperation, rapidly changing Antarctic ecosystems and the need for urgent climate action. Participants highlighted the role of education and public engagement in raising awareness of the importance of Antarctica and its impact on the planet.
The Bulgarian pavilion at COP31 is hosting 20 events between November 9 and 20, with RSV 421 serving as a central venue for the programme. The vessel is also scheduled to welcome students from Turkish schools to present Bulgaria’s Antarctic research activities and cooperation with Türkiye’s polar programme.
RSV 421 arrived in Antalya after departing from Varna on November 4. It will remain in the Turkish port until November 12 before continuing to Antarctica on its fifth voyage, supporting the 35th Bulgarian Antarctic Expedition and research at Bulgaria’s St Kliment Ohridski base on Livingston Island.
