The signing of this Memorandum demonstrates a clear commitment from both government and civil society to work together in addressing the needs of vulnerable children in Ukraine.

As the collaboration between the Ministry of Social Policy and City of Goodness unfolds, it is essential to recognize the broader context of child welfare in Ukraine.
