Strategic Investment Council approves Medium-Term Public Investment Plan for 2027–2029

Transport, municipal infrastructure and housing remain among the Government’s key priorities. Chaired by Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Svyrydenko, the 18th meeting of the Strategic Investment Council approved the core documents required for the further implementation of the public investment management reform.

The decisions adopted lay the groundwork for integrating public investment into a single system of state strategic and budget planning.

The approved Medium-Term Plan for Priority Public Investments for 2027–2029 covers 18 priority sectors and 44 subsectors.

A total of three sectors under the responsibility of the Ministry for Communities and Territories Development – transport, housing, and municipal infrastructure and services – have been approved, alongside 14 subsectors and 19 investment priorities.

The sectors overseen by the Ministry received some of the largest allocations of planned funding:

• Transport and postal services – UAH 73.01 billion;
• Municipal infrastructure and services – UAH 46.53 billion.

These funds will be directed towards the restoration and development of critical community infrastructure and the modernisation of transport corridors.

Particular attention in project preparation will be given to the five cross-cutting priorities approved by the Council: energy efficiency, digitalisation, climate change response, gender equality and accessibility.

For the housing and municipal sectors, this means the mandatory introduction of energy-efficiency standards and the creation of barrier-free environments.

To strengthen the link between the Government’s strategic objectives and investment decisions, the Council also approved a list of 23 sectoral strategies. These will serve as the foundation for planning capital investments.

By the end of 2026, the relevant ministries are expected to update or develop the necessary sectoral policy documents. This will enable the introduction of a unified approach to investment management and ensure the transparent allocation of budgetary and donor funding.

The next step will be the formation of the Single Project Pipeline (SPP). The inter-agency working group has already been recommended to begin selecting projects from sectoral portfolios for further preparation.

Projects in the areas of transport, housing and municipal development that are selected will be allocated to Project Preparation Facility (PPF) programmes. This will help ensure high-quality project documentation and readiness for the rapid launch of financing.
