"As there are over 75 000 women serving in the Ukrainian armed forces, their specific needs and circumstances should be integrated into the country’s veterans’ policy so that it fully addresses the reintegration and rehabilitation of women veterans with disabilities".
Women actively participate in the Ukrainian armed forces, in a variety of roles. Some of them have also become persons with disabilities as a result of hostilities and therefore their specific needs to recover and reintegrate should also be an integral part of Ukraine’s national veterans’ policy.
