Committee
Committee on Equality and Non-Discrimination
Origin
2026 - Fourth part-session
In the draft resolution, at the end of paragraph 8, insert the following sentence:

"It further highlights the particular needs of women veterans, who should be given visibility, in particular as they face gender stereotypes concerning their role in society".

Explanatory note

Many Ukrainian women play a very active role in the army, but they face a lack of recognition as veterans, including as veterans with disabilities, which can have an impact on their access to rights and support services.
