Recovery and stabilization support to Eastern Ukraine: Good Governance and Citizens' Engagement
The conflict in Eastern Ukraine has put a massive toll on key public infrastructure. 20% of active households have experienced employment loss and reduced livelihoods, and thousands of families have been separated from their relatives across the contact line. This contribution to the UN-led Recovery and Peacebuilding program aims at strengthening the capacities of regional and local governments to make more effective use of increased funding for addressing pressing recovery needs, supporting local dialogue and trust building.

Contexte | The conflict has put a massive toll on the economy and public infrastructure in Donetsk and Luhansk regions, weakened the governance systems due to chronic Jack of human resources and deteriorated the levels of social eohesion and trust in state institutions. At the same time, in the government-controlled areas of eastern Ukraine international assistance and special national subventions have contributed to a modest recovery of the region. These interventions are focusing on creating job opportunities, rebuilding civilian infrastructure, integrating lnternally Displaced People and supporting the state and regional authorities in stimulating the local economy. To translate the significantly enhanced local budgets and international assistance into effective and inclusive service delivery to the population in the conflict-affected region, stronger regional and local governance systems are needed. |
Objectifs | Promote peace and stabilisation in eastern Ukraine through good regional and local governance and citizen engagement for community security, law enforcement, access to justice and for increased social cohesion. |
Groupes cibles | 5 million citizens living in the conflict region, local self-governments, citizens' groups, civil society organizations and media in the target communities of Donetsk and Luhansk regions. |
