One of the key priorities of this year is to rebuild people’s homes, and the Government has already helped more than 90,000 Ukrainian families under the eVidnovlennia programme. This was stated by Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal during a meeting of the Cabinet on 7 February.

“In total, under the eVidnovlennia programme, people have been approved for payments for damaged property worth almost UAH 9 billion and housing certificates worth more than UAH 21 billion,” said Denys Shmyhal.

According to him, this week the Government has already allocated UAH 15 billion to compensate internally displaced persons for their homes damaged or destroyed as a result of russia’s armed aggression, and more than 10,000 families will be able to receive new housing.

The Prime Minister also said that the Council of Europe Development Bank had decided to allocate another EUR 150 million for housing programmes in Ukraine. In addition, he reminded that the EBRD had announced that it would invest at least EUR 1.5 billion in Ukraine and its economy this year. In particular, these are projects in the energy and transport sectors.

Denys Shmyhal thanked the international partners who helped to finance projects to restore and develop Ukraine and support the public investment management reform.
