60% of the working population of the village of Zgorigrad used to work in Plakalnitsa mine;
80% of those who worked there are affected by osteochondral and pulmonary diseases, which provoked us to target this group of people in our project;
50% of people in retirement age who have worked in the mine were involved in the project;
We have used the equipment and the potential of our chitalishte library to create the Virtual Medical School.

The users had the opportunity of working with specialists
on these types of diseases.
They were provided with access to e-materials, thus we increased their knowledge about these diseases and the respective treatments, resulting in an improved quality of life.
We had purchased specialized medical literature and have created a database on the prevention of diseases which are common in our community, aimed at providing help to all inhabitants of the village of Zgorigrad, since the project is covering only a certain percentage of the total population.
