UNICEF and the Ministry of Family.

Meeting between Minister Marlena Maląg and the Director of the UNICEF Regional Office

The meeting of Marlena Maląg, the Minister of Family and Social Policy (MFSP), and Regina De Dominicis, the newly appointed Director of the UNICEF Regional Office for Europe and Central Asia concerned mostly the present and future cooperation between UNICEF and the MFSP. They also discussed the Polish government’s involvement in the assistance provided to the children evacuated from Ukraine, as well as activities related to the family policy and the labor market.

The MFSP continues its cooperation with UNICEF, focusing on activities that will ultimately lead to improved conditions for children from Ukrainian foster care institutions residing in Poland and create opportunities for Ukrainian families to function independently in Polish society.

Regina De Dominics thanked for the exceptional measures taken by the Polish government for Ukrainian citizens.

We realize how much these children and their families have been through. This cooperation is extremely important, which is why we will continue to benefit from UNICEF’s support - said Minister Marlena Maląg.

Regina De Dominicis’ visit to Warsaw was her first to Poland as the Director of the UNICEF Regional Office for Europe and Central Asia. Her duties in her position include coordinating UNICEF’s assistance to Ukrainian children.
