Abstract
The Euromaidan protests in 2013–2014 inspired women in Ukraine to fight more actively for their rights, especially in the military sphere. An analysis of women’s participation in the ‘Revolution of Dignity’, how the protests are metaphorically called, and the war in Donbas that started in 2014, helps to understand why and how Ukrainian society has so fiercely resisted the Russian invasion since 24 February 2022. Ukrainians have been fighting for their independence and recognition for many decades and women have always been an active part of this fight. When Ukraine became independent in 1991, women actively participated in the state-building and democratization of the country.
