🧨Ukraine has launched the "She is a Deminer" program, offering free humanitarian demining training for women aged 18–55 from all regions of the country.

The initiative aims to involve more women in mine action as Ukraine remains one of the world’s most heavily mined countries, with 132,000 square kilometers still dangerous for civilians.

Participants can study demining, GIS, drone operation, and safety procedures without prior experience. Women from the Chernihiv, Kyiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, and Mykolaiv regions can also join leadership and development programs.

The project combines technical training with psychological support, mentoring, and career guidance to help women enter a profession traditionally seen as male-dominated🪖

👨🏻‍💻After years of full-scale war, many of the systems that keep everyday life in Ukraine functioning are sustained by women.

In hospitals, volunteer centers, community organizations, and humanitarian initiatives, much of the work happens through coordination, care, adaptability, and persistence. However, these forms of leadership often remain less visible.

This story looks at the people operating behind the scenes, and at how collective effort, relational work, and long-term commitment continue to hold critical support systems together under wartime conditions💙💛
