The event will focus on international legal instruments on the protection of children's rights in intercountry adoption.
Ukrainian authorities will discuss challenges and best practices with their counterparts from key countries of origin and destination for adoption in the region. Discussions are expected to lead to the modification of national legislation on intercountry adoption to ensure the protection of the best interests of the child and prevent possible violations, including trafficking in children.
