Remark of the Humanitarian Coordinator, Resident Coordinator to Ukraine, Denise Brown, at the Ukrainian Women's Congress "Path to Recovery: Women's Participation at the Local Level"

The situation in Ukraine is incredibly difficult. Russia’s invasion has set back women, girls, LGBTQI+ and Roma people's rights and equality.

The women of Ukraine are strong, determined, courageous and very focused. They are at the forefront of the front-line humanitarian response and are advocating for the recovery of their communities.

Together, we are working hard to elevate women’s voices. It feels hopeful.
