Nataliia headed the Ukrainian Veterans Foundation of the Ministry of Veterans Affairs for more than a year and a half.
In fact, a powerful institution has grown from scratch – perhaps the only one in Ukraine that effectively helps Ukrainian veterans: provides financial support for their own entrepreneurial initiatives, psychological and legal assistance, conducts important analytics, and representative sociological researches. And that’s not all.
Therefore, we are sure that she will continue her service to our defenders and Ukraine in the new position of Deputy Minister! Of course, with new responsibilities and challenges.
We thank Nataliia for the faith in our cause, support and incredible efforts that she invested!
Nataliia’s priority areas of work in her new position:
People – personnel policy reform, development of an effective human resources management model, digitalization of processes, creation of the Armed Forces employer brand.
Military personnel in civilian life – adaptation of the military, state guarantees, the mental health system, building a reserve force from veterans.
Military medicine – digitization and reform of the military medical center, changing approaches to training in tactical medicine, no compromises on the quality of military first-aid kits, building a new model in the military medicine system (from tourniquet and evacuation vehicle to treatment of diseases and prosthetics).
Her expertise will help our soldiers feel protected and important for the state.
“The main priority for new team members is our soldiers, their life, health and dignity. Our most important task is to ensure respect for the dignity of soldiers in all interactions with the state”, – emphasized the Minister of Defense of Ukraine Rustem Umerov.
