Sustainable reconstruction of Ukraine is impossible without compliance with environmental standards. However, during the war, two important procedures - environmental impact assessment (EIA) and strategic environmental assessment (SEA) - were significantly curtailed. This poses risks to the environment, human health, and ultimately to investor confidence. Join the event that will feature presenation of a new analytical paper with recommendations from Ecoclub and WWF-Ukraine on how to improve EIA and SEA procedures in Ukraine.

During the event, speakers will focus on the main achievements and challenges in the implementation of the Ukraine Plan during the presentation of RRR4U's traditional study "Monitoring of the Implementation of IMF Program Conditions and EU Assistance under the Ukraine Facility". The special topic of the new issue is civil service reform, one of the key areas of the Ukraine Plan within the Ukraine Facility.

DiXi Group experts helped ten Ukrainian communities develop and approve Municipal Energy Plans (MEPs). For another ten communities, they prepared preliminary feasibility studies for energy efficiency measures included in their MEPs. During the event, we will talk about the path participants have taken, where they currently are in the process of preparing and implementing their energy plans, and whether they have achieved their goals.

Before the annual Ukraine Recovery Conference 2025, which will take place on 10-11 July, expert community will gather to objectively assess the state of the Ukrainian economy and discuss issues that need to be taken into account and resolved in the process of our country's further recovery.

How are civil society and government authorities preparing for the Ukraine Recovery Conference which will take place in Rome in July 2025? Join the event to hear from different stakeholders and experts of the Resource and Analytical Centre “Society and Environment” who will present their new analytical report “Green Reconstruction of Ukraine: Processes, Forms and Visions of Key Stakeholders”.

Despite progress, the construction sector in Ukraine and worldwide remains one of the least inclusive industries. Join the webinar by ReThink to discuss how the construction sector in Ukraine can become a pathway for veteran support and social reintegration, how to navigate and overcome systemic barriers in the industry — and how to transform these challenges into change.

CSRD, CSDDD, ESG — these acronyms are rapidly becoming part of the everyday vocabulary of Ukrainian agribusinesses and advisory services. In fact, there is nothing radically new about them — they reflect the principles of sustainable development that EU countries have long acknowledged and embedded into policy. However, in Ukraine, despite over two decades of promoting the UN Sustainable Development Goals and awareness-raising efforts, real understanding only began to take root when sustainability reporting became a formal requirement within the EU integration process. Join the event by Green Dossier to find out more.

In July 2025, Ukraine will start the bilateral screening process with the European Union on its state of play on implementing Chapter 15, energy.

The Russian aggression in Ukraine severely affects the environment, as well as leads to the formation of war waste. How much of this waste is there, and what to do with it? These questions will guide the discussion during the partner event taking place within the EU Green Week 2025. During the event by the Ministry of Environment of Ukraine, EEB and Society and Environment speakers will discuss the importance of addressing the problem of war waste formation at the political, scientific, infrastructure and financial levels, and demonstrate the role of EU circularity policies to address the challenges in Ukraine related to the war.

Can the agricultural sector be not only a source of emissions, but also a solution to the climate crisis? How to ensure the country's food security while reducing the carbon footprint? Where to find funds for the "green" transition in the post-war recovery? Join the event by the Green Transition Office and DiXi Group during which experts will provide answers to these and other important questions during an online discussion at the intersection of agribusiness, climate technologies, and energy.

In the Eastern Partnership (EaP) region, achieving environmental and climate resilience remains a challenge, further exacerbated by Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, whose consequences are impacting the whole region. The war caused enormous damage to the nature, polluted the air, water and soil, and led to increased greenhouse gas emissions. The war also influenced many aspects of ongoing reforms in the EaP countries, caused a slow down in the energy transition, and a further decline of environmental and climate priorities. The event by the Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum will focus on the main environment and security challenges in the EaP countries and highlights the extent to which energy and climate change challenges impact environmental security in the region. 

Join the event by NGO Vision Zero showcasing the results of a sustainable post-war restoration project for the community of Konotop in Sumy region, Ukraine.

At a time when many Ukrainian cities have lost their public spaces — physically or symbolically — questions of belonging, mutual support, and cultural life become especially significant. The culture commons model — the shared use of cultural spaces — opens up new possibilities for recovery: not only infrastructural, but also social. Join Ro3kvit lecture by Marijo van Schaik that will be followed by a short reflection by Anastasiya Ponomaryova - an architect, researcher, and co-founder of NGO Urban Curators and СO-HATY initiative.

Following Russian strikes, Ukraine’s gas infrastructure has suffered significant damage. The country has lost a substantial portion of its production and finished the heating season with record-low gas reserves. Estimates suggest that Ukraine needs between $1.5 billion and $3 billion to secure the necessary gas supplies. Donors are willing to cover only partially this amount. Where will the funds come from, and what can be done to get through the coming winter? Join to hear from expert of the Center for Economic Strategy reviewing the main changes in the country’s economy over the past month and covering the special topic dedicated to the heating season preparations.

Ukraine has shown that in the deepest crisis, tapping into the collective intelligence of its citizens helps to forge a new vision and defend the country. What can we learn from Ukraine to rethink institutions and develop creative solutions to open them up to citizens? Join the event by Unhack Democracy with participation of Ro3kvit.
