The main issue during the meeting was a discussion in depth about sustainability for YMCA Ukraine. But of course the meeting also contained reporting and in addition to this plans for future activities were discussed.
In Kirovograd the group met with a scout group from YMCA Kirovograd and in Krementjuk the group visited a very young lokal YMCA association.
In Kiev the Leader and some of the members of the Field Group met with two multinational companies, the Cultural Affairs Attache at the Embassy of the United States of America to Ukraine, the Canadian Ambassador to Ukraine and the Ukrainian Ministry of Social Policy.
As always the stay in Ukraine was very, very well organised and extremely pleasant and rewarding.
Next year the Field Group meeting will be held 16-17 September in Odessa.
