All teenagers dream of having their own money and being independent from parents. Becoming a popular blogger, a model, founding a successful startup, or starting a band – all of these dreams could come true! After taking the first steps towards financial independence and feeling the taste of success, these teenagers will have to deal with a new world, which may not be quite safe or comprehensible: the world of business.
We will talk about the current state of the Ukrainian business community as it upholds the rights of the child, and the obstacles that prevent it from doing so. We will also consider the cases of children who successfully started their own businesses.
Speakers:
Yevheniy Shakotko, former government human rights expert for the Ministry of Justice, founder of the NGO Office for Responsible Development;
Kateryna Mykhalko, startup founder.
Moderator: Natalia Sokolenko, journalist.
