In November 2014, three representatives from the association SPOC in Bulgaria were in Bindal, Norway to plan a collaboration with Peacepainting. Peacepainting is invited to arrange a painting workshop in Bulgaria in the summer of 2015. SPOC has received grants from the EU and ESF (European Social Fund, separate program under the Council of Europe) to run projects in schools and to the media to promote tolerance and respect. They must fight racism and xenophobia. Bulgaria has received many refugees in recent years, and has many immigrants.
