According to the Main Directorate of Military Police at Ukraine’s Armed Forces nearly 5,000 Ukrainian soldiers have sustained various injuries since the conflict broke out in the Donbas region. Rehabilitation of Ukrainian soldiers injured while fighting in the conflict zone is one of the most urgent social challenges deserving the closest attention on the part of government, media and NGOs.
Social integration of wounded, injured and sick service members is crucial for the public attitudes towards disabled people. Disabled people have still been facing ignorance, prejudice and fears that are restricting their abilities and opportunities for successful careers, studying and self-development. This also holds true with wounded, injured and sick military veterans. The Invictus Games aim to overcome stereotypes about disabled servicemen, replacing them with a sense of pride and respect for people who did not lose their zest for life despite terrible ordeals they had been through.
