Almost every second veteran believes that society does not respect people like them: presentation of online survey results
A survey of veterans and servicemen in February 2023 showed that 4% of respondents believed that society “does not respect” veterans at all. This figure doubled to 9.8% in October 2023. The overall share of veterans who are convinced of the lack of respect for them has also increased – 44.1% compared to 25.4% in February 2023.
The Ukrainian Veterans Foundation of the Ministry of Veterans Affairs has conducted another online survey, Portrait of a Veteran. We are ready to present the results. And they are disappointing.
We invite veterans, journalists, the public and government officials to participate in the presentation. You will learn about the results of the survey and get answers to your questions:
- How do veterans assess respect from society and support from the state?
- What problems do veterans consider most likely to arise in civilian life?
- What should the state and society do to strengthen veterans right now?
The event will take place on November 20 (Monday) at 15:00 at the Ukraine Media Center of Ukrinform.
