How has the war impacted the economic situation of people with disabilities in Ukraine?
Limited access to jobs, workplace discrimination, and lack of support — these are just some of the barriers people with disabilities face in the labor market. But what is the true scale of the problem? How does it affect thousands of lives? And most importantly, what actions can businesses, government institutions, and international partners take to drive change?
These questions will be addressed during the presentation of a groundbreaking study on the employment and livelihood challenges of people with disabilities in wartime Ukraine.
Why is this event important?
This event serves as a key platform for discussion and solutions. The research findings will inform recommendations to promote an inclusive labor market in Ukraine.
The presentation is organized with the financial support of the World Health Organization (WHO) in Ukraine and the Government of the United Kingdom. The views expressed in this publication are solely those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the official position of WHO.
