In the social sector, attention is focused on child custody issues, specifically demanding that the minister provide a solution to a particular public controversy. Another key topic is sports funding, particularly raising coaches' wages and investing in training camps, thereby directly linking active, athletic youth to Estonia's national security. The current austerity policy, which has resulted in cuts to sports financing, is being heavily criticized.

The social sector focuses on the welfare of children with special needs and the elderly requiring specialized care. The speaker criticizes the inability of local governments, stemming from a lack of funding, to provide childcare services and support persons, which hinders parental employment and turns them into taxpayers. Additionally, the focus is on motivating students in engineering and technical specialties, as well as high-profile cases related to child protection (the Kristiina Heinmets-Aigro saga).
