Communities will receive UAH 740.3 million to implement 119 recovery projects in communities, with the support of the European Investment Bank. The Government approved the distribution of subventions for local budgets. This is the next stage of financing within the framework of the Recovery Program of Ukraine III. The funds will be directed to the restoration of social and critical infrastructure, including for regions affected by the war.
“We direct the resource to where it gives the most tangible result for people. These are specific projects that will help communities restore important facilities and provide basic services to people. This is the restoration or construction of hospitals, critical infrastructure facilities, and strengthening the energy resilience of communities. Support must reach communities in a timely and targeted manner, especially where the consequences of the war are felt most acutely,” emphasized Oleksiy Kuleba, Deputy Prime Minister for Reconstruction – Minister of Community and Territorial Development of Ukraine.
In total, the program provides for financing 119 projects, including:
