Summary/Abstract: It has been more than a year since the Russian Federation invaded Ukraine on a large scale. But the war between the two states did not start in 2022 but is eight years old, when the Russian Federation occupied the Crimean Peninsula, part of Ukraine. One year after the fateful February 24, 2022, the two states have approximately 100,000 casualties and loss of military equipment. Ukraine's economy has shrunk by 30%, and more than 30% of its population has been displaced. 40% of Ukraine's energy capacity was destroyed. Neither side is considering reaching a compromise or negotiating a ceasefire. A year of relentless, horrific war, including war crimes and crimes against humanity, with widespread suffering for the people of both Ukraine and the Russian Federation. In this context, resilience has become a very important term, and a correlation between it and the gender perspective has appeared in the public discourse. What are the lessons learned from this war? Are we able to learn from them?
