Youths for Youths: Know Your Rights, Change Your Life

On 27 February, 2015, upon an invitation from the international charity organisation Partnership 4 Every Child, the Centre’s children and social counselors attended an unusual event called an ‘open space.’ The event was held under the project entitled ‘Youths for Youths: Know Your Rights, Change Your Life‘.

Together with professionals, the kids shared and discussed their current issues and tried to find the best solutions as well as suggest improvements to the existing support mechanisms.

We have attended an open space event entitled ‘Youths for Youths: Know Your Rights, Change Your Life,’ and I enjoyed it immensely! I think we should hold similar events as frequently as possible as they are indeed of great help to people. I wish to thank the international charity organisation Partnership 4 Every Child for an invitation. That was a great opportunity for me and my friends to sort out our problems and find the answers to our many persisting questions. I was pleasantly surprised to see kids were so willing to share their emotions and merely help each other. We happily exchanged our contact information to be able to keep in touch in the future. I particularly wish to thank Oksana Potapova for helping me sort out my situation.’ - Vlad, 16 y.o., participant of the open space event.

The Our Kids Centre wishes to thank you for an invitation and for your contribution to child development.
