A seminar for the parliamentary corps of the Vitebsk region on the topic "Social State – the Belarusian Model of Well-being" is currently underway at the Vitebsk Regional Clinical Hospital.
The key theme of the current seminar-meeting is dedicated to the results of the charity events "Our Children" and "From the Bottom of Our Hearts". Initiated by the Head of State Alexander Lukashenko, these events have for many years helped children and the older generation feel care, attention, and the approach of a real holiday.
Gleb Lapitsky, member of the Council of the Republic of the National Assembly of the Republic of Belarus, General Director of the State Institution "Center of Culture "Vitebsk", addressed the participants of the event with a welcoming speech:
– We need such seminars to absorb information from the top officials, from the leaders who oversee our social sphere. Because the social state is the brand of the Republic of Belarus that can overcome any criticism and negativity that we sometimes encounter both during personal receptions of citizens and during election campaigns.
And in order to be informed, we need to see for ourselves how the heads of structural divisions work on the ground, and know about the problems firsthand.
The second point is that local deputies should know each other better, so such meetings are a good idea and practice.
