Four years of full‑scale war have changed everything in Ukraine. Yet everyday life still goes on. In this video, we share powerful stories of how Ukrainians keep going under constant attack, and how the European Union supports them.
From civil protection workers in Kharkiv repairing infrastructure in freezing temperatures, to teachers giving lessons in shelters, and 12‑year‑old Sasha, who keeps playing the piano despite the war, Ukrainians are showing extraordinary resilience.
The EU stands with Ukraine for as long as it takes. Together with its Member States, the European Union has mobilised almost €195 billion in political, financial, military and humanitarian support.

While prospects for women in tech and AI have improved over the years, women still comprise just a fraction of the tech workforce. Ayumi Moore Aoki is the founder of Women in Tech Global, an organization with a presence in over 60 countries around the world, one designed to empower women in the sector. She shares how a leaky talent pipeline makes opportunity harder to seize, what’s needed at each stage of women’s careers to bridge gaps and what leaders can do to ensure they make the most of their team’s talents. She’ll also explain what skills will be more important than ever for leaders in an AI-powered workforce, the question she asks herself now more than at any time in her career, and the one topic that will define AI in the months ahead. Lastly, this advocate and founder also details how her background has prepared her to run WTG, from her time in South Africa during apartheid to her lessons learned as an entrepreneur.
