In the epoch of crises, including spiritual one, it is important to prevent the deformation of the family institution. Representatives of the Belarusian Orthodox Church, charity foundation "Pokrov" and the Ministry of Labor and Social Security will coordinate their efforts. On September 23, Minsk will host the Slavic Family Forum. How can we stop the epidemic of values distortion, avoid demographic challenges and build a strong family? These questions will be addressed by experts from Belarus and Russia at plenary sessions and thematic round tables. A post-script of the forum is the adoption of the final resolution aimed at popularization and innovations in family values policy.
Veniamin, Metropolitan of Minsk and Zaslavl, High Priest of All Belarus:
The way our family life is structured, to a large extent determines the life of society and the country. It's difficult to solve the problem without everyone getting involved. This is a theme of the Ministry of Education, because the way we raise the younger generation will determine the way they will build their own family. This topic is also related to our culture.
A system of state benefits implemented for Belarusian families.
Support is provided for the construction of housing for large families, medical services and education. There is a program of family capital. About 117 thousand multi-child families have already received it.
