In Kyiv's Taras Shevchenko Park, a one-of-a-kind multimedia installation called "Lighthouse" was unveiled. It represents the importance of family values and was launched on World Children's Day. Kids from various parts of Ukraine participated in its creation.
UNICEF Ukraine reported that.
What is the solution?
The "Lighthouse" is an art space shaped like a circle – symbolizing unity and family ties.
The core feature of the installation was children's artworks showcasing families, aspirations, and feelings. These drawings were gathered from various parts of Ukraine through a project that brought together children from diverse ages and backgrounds.
How does it work?
The space is open for two weeks, and everyone is welcome to participate. Visitors' creativity is incorporated into the existing installation, adding vibrancy and energy.

- children from all over Ukraine;
- Coordination Center for the Development of Family Education and Child Care;
- Ministry of Social Policy of Ukraine;
- Artist Masha Reva, who added modern artistic accents to the project.
