To be good is easy especially if you are part of such a large and friendly team as UNICEF.

This year, more than 200 young guys from all over Belarus joined the volunteers’ ranks of the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF), including the third-year students of the specialty "Customs" Romanovich Milana and Zakhozhaya Anastasia, as well as a graduate of the specialty Malaychuk Galina.

UNICEF was a non-profit partner of the II European Games on Social Heritage and provided volunteers with a unique opportunity to participate in such a large and memorable event.

During the Games in each of the regional centres, including Gomel, children's fan zones were organized. Here the guys were involved in organizing active leisure for children and their parents. Anyone could take part in fun and exciting games, flash mobs, learn more about children's rights and inclusion in sports, and also receive well-deserved prizes and souvenirs.

For the assistance provided, as well as contribution to the promotion of children's rights and the achievement of sustainable development goals for volunteers, a meeting was organized with UNICEF representative in Belarus, Dr. Rashed Mustafa Sarvar, who personally presented certificates and souvenirs, and also expressed hope for further cooperation and the development of the volunteer movement.
