The goal of this project is to broaden empirical knowledge and develop strategic skills for the effective management of deinstitutionalisation programmes for children with disabilities. The project will focus on six countries in Eastern Europe and Central Asia (EECA) and pursue three main objectives:
- To broaden the empirical knowledge and skills among Armenian, Ukrainian, Moldavian and Tajik policy experts and government representatives dealing with child care policies through learning from best practices of deinstitutionalisation of children with disabilities in Bulgaria and Georgia.
- To build the capacities of the same stakeholders through a workshop in Armenia for sharing experience with their counterparts from Bulgaria and Georgia.
- To disseminate the best practices of deinstitutionalisation of children with disabilities among the networks of government agencies, policy makers and civil society representatives through local meetings among the workshop participants and their counterparts.
