New Opportunities for Veterans in Diia
The Ministry of Veterans Affairs, in collaboration with the Ministry of Digital Transformation, has launched a new section in the Diia mobile app called "Veteran Pro", aimed at military personnel, veterans, and the families of the deceased defenders.
This announcement was made by Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal during an event dedicated to the presentation of the new digital space Veteran Pro in Diia in Kyiv, according to "Interfax-Ukraine".
"Today, we are taking another significant step towards supporting our defenders by introducing the digital ecosystem "Veteran Pro", which is exclusively focused on the veteran community."
"This service provides veterans access to a wide range of existing state support programs, aiding them in adapting and thriving in civilian life," Shmyhal stated.
He added that this ecosystem will be continually updated, developed, and will include new services and initiatives that are necessary for the defenders.
According to Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov, veterans will soon also have the option to change the Diia app icon to a veteran-stylized version.
He also mentioned that the app will automatically adjust itself when used by a veteran to offer specifically veteran services.
In particular, the new functionality in Diia is designed for the following categories of citizens: war veterans; affected participants of the Revolution of Dignity; families of deceased (passed away) war veterans; families of deceased (passed away) defenders of Ukraine.
