Ostrova Bulgaria's Flag

Island Vulnerability explores the challenges which isolated geographies face when dealing with risk and disasters by examining the processes which create, maintain, and could be used to reduce their vulnerability. This page provides photos from Ostrova (Острова), Bulgaria also referred to as the Ostrova Industrial Zone of Varna (Варна).
