National “Being a father” Campaign – Father’s week – November 17-23

Karin Dom Foundation joined the National “Being a Father” campaign which is part of the part of the Global Fatherhood Campaign – MenCare.

The goal of the campaign is to attract social attention towards the benefits of the fathers’ active participation in the children’s life – for creating a non-violent family environment and for the child’s development. The campaign is focused not only on fathers, but on all male family figures – grandfathers, uncles, etc.

The “Father’s Week” initiative was carried out between November17 and 23.
