in the framework of the European Commission’s Project NGO Development – Ukraine, Kyiv and selected regions
On 12.07.2004 a round table will be conducted in order to present the draft of the new edition of the Law On Social Services and a range of by-laws regulating social service provision. The adoption of the law is a decisive step towards decentralization of the social sphere in Ukraine, by attracting non –state subjects in social service provision, and it is expected that the professional level of provided social services will increase, such as the spectrum of offered services. The group of experts will consist of Ukrainian and Western European experts who work in the framework of the European Commission’s Project NGO Development – Ukraine, Kyiv and selected regions in close co-operation with the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy, the Ministry on Family, Children and Youth and the World Bank. The working group has taken into consideration to an extent possible opinions of other international organisations and projects like UCAN, ICNL, of specialists of High Educational Institutions, representatives of NGOs, such as Kovsheg, the Instititute on Civil Society, National University “Kyiv-Mohyla Academy”.
The round table will take place on 12.07.2004 from 14.30 pm till 16.30 pm at the Delegation of the European Commission, 10 Kruhlo – Universytetska St,
The draft of the new edition of the Law On Social Services is going to be published on 02.07.2004 at the web site www.ngodevelopment.org.ua (see Legal environment for NGOs). Interested persons are most welcome to discuss the new edition with the help of the forum of our web site.
