Ludmila Makei
Freelance journalist
(Kirovograd region)
Within the framework of the Ukrainian-Lithuanian project works on the topic:
“Participation of women in the socio-political life of the region. Research of changes in the gender landscape of Kropyvnytskyi city and Kirovograd region”
I have always been interested in gender issues, especially the role of women in shaping the worldview of Ukrainians, their mentality, cultural and political spaces. Having the opportunity to work in this project, I decided to continue this direction. After all, today, when Ukraine and the world are undergoing rapid transformations, women’s history is gaining new meaning. So I see my mission in writing about gender processes in an accessible and convincing way. I am convinced that the level of democracy in society largely depends on the place of women in it.”
