On 29 November 2023, the Ministry of Education with the support of the UN and the Embassy of Sweden will hold a practical conference on the introduction of gender practices in the Ukrainian education system until 2030 at the Hilton Hotel in Kyiv. The invitation to the practical lecture was published on his Facebook page by the synkellos for monastic affairs of the Lviv Archdiocese of the UGCC, Justyn Boiko.

Boiko blurred out the contacts of the organisers and asked readers to comment on whether the document was genuine.

The document, addressed to the heads of the education and science departments of the regional administrations, as well as the Kyiv Regional Council and the KSCA, says that the event will present "national promising gender-sensitive educational practices".

The organisers also promise to share with guests "foreign relevant experience on gender equality implementation" to strengthen progress on gender equality strategy implementation.

For those wishing to attend the events, the Ukrainian government will pay for bus or first-class coach tickets, accommodation and meals.

As reported, a transgender speaker of the Ukrainian Armed Forces was suspended after he announced the killing of Russian propagandists "with the help of faith in God".
