In Ukraine, more than 80,000 children are growing up in institutions and more than 8,000 are losing their families each year. Opening Doors Ukraine's campaign is aimed at consolidating the efforts of civil society to implement systemic changes in social policies that will lead to the abandonment of institutional care for children.
