About the Congress

Over the past few years, the demo­graph­ic decline has become one of the main rea­sons for wor­ries all over the world. Decrease in pop­u­la­tion is a glob­al prob­lem that requires close atten­tion and fast reac­tion. Low fer­til­i­ty gen­er­ates a num­ber of prob­lems that neg­a­tive­ly affect the social, med­ical and pen­sion sys­tems of the coun­try. Preser­va­tion of the cor­rect fam­i­ly mod­el in our soci­ety is an impor­tant task that requires an active social pol­i­cy, which involves the atten­tion of the rep­re­sen­ta­tives of the state and as well as the atten­tion of oth­er var­i­ous orga­ni­za­tions and sec­tors of soci­ety.

In order to main­tain and mul­ti­ply the impor­tance of the tra­di­tion­al fam­i­ly mod­el, it is impor­tant to give sup­port to young gen­er­a­tion start­ing their way as a fam­i­ly, fam­i­lies with 3 and more chil­dren and fam­i­lies liv­ing in pover­ty, pur­pose­ful­ly seek­ing to improve the qual­i­ty of their lives. Con­duct­ing The World Con­gress of Fam­i­lies of 2018 in the Repub­lic of Moldo­va will allow the world com­mu­ni­ty, which pro­motes the nat­ur­al devel­op­ment of rela­tions and seeks inter­na­tion­al recog­ni­tion for the mea­sures tak­en, to elim­i­nate the demo­graph­ic cri­sis in the coun­try, rais­ing social indi­ca­tors and the acknowl­edge­ment of the issue.

Sep­tem­ber was cho­sen by us as the month to con­duct the World Con­gress of Fam­i­lies 2018 for a par­tic­u­lar rea­son. This is a sym­bol of the begin­ning as we start the new sea­son, a fruit­ful month bring­ing har­vest and results. In Moldo­va, as and in many oth­er coun­tries, Sep­tem­ber sym­bol­izes the start of some­thing new and promis­ing. With such a pos­i­tive atti­tude the World Con­gress of Fam­i­lies 2018 will open its doors to each sin­gle guest of the event, who wish­es to join the inter­na­tion­al dis­cus­sion ded­i­cat­ed to fam­i­ly issues and com­pe­tent pro­duc­tive inter­ac­tion between peo­ple. We are more than sure, that the respec­tive event will allow every­one to draw out some­thing new for them­selves, to look at the eter­nal val­ues with open eyes that only a civ­i­lized soci­ety can do.

In the frame­work of the World Con­gress of Fam­i­lies, due from Sep­tem­ber 13th to Sep­tem­ber 16th, in the cap­i­tal of the repub­lic of Moldo­va, Chisin­au, known for its hos­pi­tal­i­ty and genial­i­ty, all of the pro­fes­sion­als of their domain, the key Church and Pol­i­tics fig­ures, as well as mem­bers of non-gov­ern­men­tal orga­ni­za­tions, unit­ed by a sin­gle goal — the cre­ation of a sta­ble social plat­form for many years to come, will make every pos­si­ble effort to ensure a safe and care­free future for Moldovan cit­i­zens.

Since the fam­i­ly is the orig­i­nal social insti­tu­tion that lays the foun­da­tion of a moral­ly respon­si­ble soci­ety, giv­ing vital instruc­tions for the future, with the sup­port of the Pres­i­dent of the Repub­lic of Moldo­va, Igor Dodon, and the First Lady of the Coun­try, Gali­na Dodon, sup­port­ing the event with her Char­i­ty Foun­da­tion “Din Suflet”, our small Ortho­dox coun­try, the Repub­lic of Moldo­va is proud to take , after Tbil­isi and Budapest, for hold­ing the World Con­gress of Fam­i­lies 2018 in their coun­try and invites every­one to reg­is­ter for the event on it online.
