Ukrainian Cities Strengthened by Decentralisation

Cities like Lviv in western Ukraine have been successful in delivering the basic needs of their citizens, but it can also be an example of how to rebuild the destroyed infrastructure of the country after the Russian aggression ends.

An international conference aimed at supporting Ukraine’s civilian resilience starts today, 13 December in Paris. The conference was the result of the conversation between Presidents Macron and Zelenskyy at the beginning of November; however, it is one of the dozens of big and small international conferences and meetings regarding rebuilding Ukrainian civilian infrastructure and cities while providing financial aid to its badly suffering economy.

One of those, the World for Ukraine Summit, has just finished in Rzeszów-Jasionka (Poland), and that was at least the fourth conference since the beginning of the month.

Moreover, on 4 November, the G7 established a coordination mechanism to help Ukraine repair, restore and defend its critical energy and water infrastructure, and confirmed it remained “committed to contribute to the recovery, reconstruction and modernisation of Ukraine.”
