UNICEF will invest $1 million in the development of a network of preschool education institutions in the Kharkiv region in 2016-2017, reports Kharkiv Regional State Administration (UA).
The region’s first vice-governor, Julia Svetlichnaya, explained that, at the moment, there is a shortage of places for preschool education.
