"War is not an excuse to delay human rights... turning a blind eye leads to rapid regression"

In Ukraine, despite the ongoing war, advocates for gender equality and LGBTQ+ rights, like MP Inna Sovsun, continue to fight for human rights, highlighting the need for attention to these issues even in wartime.

In Ukraine, where society's focus has been consumed by four years of war and national defense, voices advocating for gender equality and LGBTQ+ rights persist. MP Inna Sovsun, a member of the reformist party 'Voice', recently discussed her commitment to human rights during an interview in Kyiv. As one of the few self-proclaimed feminists in the Ukrainian parliament, she emphasizes that the goal of feminism is to create a society that cares for diverse groups, including displaced people, veterans, and military families, all of whom have experienced varied hardships because of the war. She aims to design systems that encompass all these conditions through a feminist perspective.
