\u201cFeldman Ecopark perfectly conforms to the ideology of our event titled \u201cPeace in Family \u2013 Peace in Ukraine,\u201d which is devoted to the International campaign \u201c16 Days against Violence\u201d and is carried out within the frameworks of the Kharkiv-based public platform \u201cCultural Equality\u201d,\u201d the president of the Association of Large Families \u201cAMMA\u201d Yuliia Ibrahim told. \u201cCommunication with animals unites, makes both adults and children kinder. The atmosphere of peace, love, friendship and mutual understanding reigning here is not only favourable for the joint rest, but also favours the support of family values. These values are the foundation of our society, the reliable island in the surrounding ocean of violence.\u201d<\/p>\n
It should be reminded that the 16 Days against Violence international campaign is held in Ukraine from November 25 to December 10. It was initiated in 1991 by the Center for Women\u2019s Global Leadership. The global community supports this campaign every year. Governmental and non-governmental organizations from over 100 countries carry out the events aimed at drawing attention to the problem of violence in any of its forms, and to create in certain region or in certain territory the violence-free social space.
