EIGE’s Director, Carlien Scheele, speaks at the event organised by the Ukrainian Women's Fund to present the results of the Ukrainian Gender Equality Index.
The event will highlight Ukraine's dedication to gender equality by developing a Gender Equality Index using EIGE's methodology and acknowledge the efforts of Ukrainian organisations in collecting data despite the challenges of Russia's war of aggression. The results show that Ukraine aligns closely with the EU average and is ahead of eight EU countries. Ukraine also exceeds the EU average in time spent on voluntary and charitable activities.
