DEPARTMENT FOR EDUCATION AND YOUTH WORK

Future of each society has its unquestioning connection with those values, which were embodied in a child during his/hers upbringing. Cherishing certain virtues, a family and educational institutions (along with the society in which the child finds himself or herself) form the first civil rights guidelines for a person, who will soon begin to operate with his or her own views on life. Modern children, unlike their parents, who were brought up in soviet times, are not influenced by soviet educational program. They are the ones who created the first centers of European legal and therefore political culture. However, it is impossible to develop a healthy civil society in the absence of dialogue between students and liberal powers. The reminiscences of our past, still active in schools and universities, do everything possible in order to destroy the hope of Ukrainian nation for a happy future, they destroy young, active, conscious citizens, who are not afraid of taking the responsibility for the development of the country, despite theirs young age and relatively little experience. The main objectives of our department are to have a constant dialogue with the younger generation, to promote their intellectual and cultural growth and to protect their minds in order to let them develop their own belief system.
