Nefco Green Recovery Programme for Ukraine

The aim of the Nefco Green Recovery Programme for Ukraine is to pave the way for a green and sustainable reconstruction of the country. Through various initiatives, the programme is providing financial support and technical assistance to municipalities to address both direct and indirect consequences of the war.

Financial support can be used to conduct repairs and rebuild municipal infrastructure in an environmentally sound way, accommodate internally displaced persons (IDPs) and build capacity for designing Local Green Recovery Plans.

The programme contributes to a green economy and energy transition in the recovery process.

As part of the program, investment grants (maybe later there will also be soft loans) and technical assistance for the implementation of green restoration projects in 30-50 communities in the controlled territories of Ukraine. Donors of the program are the EU, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden.
