The sixth Summit of First Ladies and Gentlemen will take place in Kyiv this August, according to a press release from the Global Platform of the Summit of First Ladies and Gentlemen.
"First Lady of Ukraine Olena Zelenska and the Global Platform of the Summit of First Ladies and Gentlemen have announced the sixth summit under the theme 'The World in 2026: Finding Stability in Times of Uncertainty.' The event will be held in August 2026 and will once again transform Kyiv into a platform for seeking shared solutions to today's most pressing global challenges," the press release states.
According to the organizers, participants will share their experiences of how different societies find resilience and regain the ability to move forward during times of crisis.
"The Ukrainian segment of the summit will explore resilience through the lens of the full-scale war, presenting historical perspectives, collective wisdom, and practical approaches that have enabled the country to remain adaptable despite the fifth year of Russia's full-scale invasion," the release says.
First Lady Olena Zelenska noted that the event will once again be held in Ukraine's capital.
"In August, we will invite our colleagues for the sixth time to gather at the Summit of First Ladies and Gentlemen in Kyiv—a city that knows what true resilience means. That is exactly what we will discuss this year, with concrete examples of what genuinely helps people endure and move forward," Zelenska said.
Over the past five years, the summit has brought together more than 50 first ladies and gentlemen, while the platform's communication campaigns have reached more than 28 million people worldwide.
