Olga Kosse elected Deputy Chair of the Board of the Ukrainian Child Rights Network
Olha Kosse, Head of the Board of Responsible Citizens NGO, has been elected Deputy Chair of the Board of the Ukrainian Child Rights Network. This decision reflects the organisation’s long-standing experience and contribution to the field of child rights protection and strengthens joint efforts to support children and families in difficult life circumstances.
This appointment builds on our long-standing partnership with the Ukrainian Child Rights Network. Together, we support children in vulnerable situations, assist families, and develop programmes that strengthen communities and create new opportunities for children’s development.
“Children’s rights are an indicator of how responsibly a state and society are able to act. Our task is to turn these principles into practical solutions, rather than leaving them on paper,” emphasises Olha Kosse.
Olha Kosse’s election to the Board of the Ukrainian Child Rights Network reflects her professional contribution and demonstrates that our organisation’s experience in working with children and communities is recognised at the national level.
We will continue our work to ensure that every child feels supported, has access to opportunities, and is able to realise their potential in a safe environment.
