A group of Ukrainian children's rights experts are on a five-day visit to Romania to exchange good practices with their Romanian counterparts, according to a press release issued by the Romanian Foreign Affairs Ministry (MAE).
The exchange of experience is funded by RoAid, Romania's development assistance and cooperation program, and it includes a series of visits and meetings with central and local officials of institutions such as the National Authority for the Protection of Children's Rights and Adoption (ANPDCA), the Ministry of Labor, Social Protection and the Elderly, the Bacau County Directorate for Child Protection, as well as children's rights NGOs, such as World Vision Romania, the Federation of Child Protection NGOs and the Center For Juridical Resources.
The Ukrainian experts will also visit one of the most important social inclusion programs implemented by UNICEF in Romania and they will be able to test an integrated social service model.
The Ukrainian experts' visit takes place under an exchange of experience program organized by ANPDCA and World Vision Romania, facilitated by the Mobility Fund for Governmental Experts, an instrument of the Foreign Affairs Ministry meant to transfer Romanian expertise to partner states in areas where Romania has recognized experience, according to Agerpres.
