Partnership Fund for a Resilient Ukraine 2 (PFRU-2)
The Partnership Fund for a Resilient Ukraine (PFRU) unites eight development partners (UK, US, Canada, Sweden, Switzerland, Finland, Estonia and the Netherlands) and the Government of Ukraine to strengthen communities and government legitimacy through improved services, economic recovery and strengthened civil society. With its contribution, Switzerland can shape the development and deployment of an innovative multi-donor financing instrument in Ukraine to support its resilience and early recovery.

Hintergrund | The PFRU was launched in December 2021 as a multi-donor initiative of five politically aligned donors (the UK, Canada, Sweden, Switzerland, and the USA) aimed at bringing coherent programmatic support for the Government of Ukraine’s commitment to conflict management and resolution. Rapidly re-geared after Russia's military aggression from February 2022 onwards, PFRU demonstrated exceptional flexibility and political agility. It now is the primary international program that provides recovery response in areas affected by hostilities and close to the frontlines. Due to its multi-donor structure, it plays a crucial role in coordinating support and in ensuring coherence in Ukraine's response and recovery efforts. |
Ziele | Ukraine (represented by its state, communities, civil society, and private sector) is resilient to Russian aggression now and into the future. |
Zielgruppen |
Direct beneficiaries include national, regional and local authorities, governmental and non-governmental organizations, State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SESU), communal and municipal entities, who provides services for the population (schools, hospitals, community centers, centers providing administrative and other services to the population etc.). Indirect beneficiaries include IDPs, vulnerable groups, returnees, citizens living in the conflict affected regions, citizens’ groups, civil society and women’s organisations and media in the target communities. |
Mittelfristige Wirkungen |
Outcome 1 (Working on Temporarily Occupied Territories - TOTs): Ukraine is more capable and effective at hindering Russian attempts to isolate people in the TOTs from Ukraine, preparing immediate responses for when people and territories are liberated, and setting foundations for longer-term reintegration. Outcome 2 (Reviving services to build confidence in the state): GoU is supported to maintain/re-start/improve selected services in priority vulnerable areas (through inclusive planning and delivery), to maintain/build public confidence in the state and stabilise the situation. Outcome 3 (Social cohesion): Horizontal and vertical cohesion are maintained/ strengthened, providing societal resilience (incl. psychological & economic resilience) against Russian aggression and reinforcing societal unity. Outcome 4 (Research and lessons): Local resilience needs, perceptions and risks are understood, and lessons drawn from PFRU activities; this information is used to inform PFRU and shared with other relevant policymakers and programmes to encourage national policies (e.g. on recovery and reintegration) which take account of local dynamics. |
Resultate |
Erwartete Resultate: Resultate von früheren Phasen: PFRU-1 was originally designed as a 3-year programme for up to £35m. The PFRU was rapidly re-geared in February 2022 in response to Russia’s full-scale invasion. PFRU’s governing committees approved a set of immediate outcomes, and temporary approval procedures, that enabled emergency projects aimed at maintaining government authority and essential services close to the frontline. In parallel, opportunities presented by the rapid liberation of territories in Kyiv and Chernihiv Oblasts, the determination of Ukrainians across society to resist, and both learning and early results from the emergency projects, fed into a revised approach and budget increase for the Fund that was approved by donors in September 2022. At its end, PFRU-1 will have spent up to £90m over 2.5 years and gained three new co-donors. The Fund’s core design principles enabled a rapid response to the full-scale invasion, and PFRU has proved to be a vital channel of support for all donors and Ukraine. An external annual review completed in July 2023 assessed that the programme was making good progress towards its outcomes and was recognised for its stabilisation-framing which had enabled an emphasis on prioritising the issues that will have greatest effect on resilience most quickly, rather than being constrained by the type of support provided (e.g. sectoral-based), setting it apart from other channels of funding. |
