While many international donors have been relatively quick to provide assistance to civilians affected by the war in Ukraine, the reconstruction of the country will require substantial resources and hence, the contribution of a multitude of actors.
What challenges will the country face in the restoration phase? What is the role for partnership and collaboration amongst public and private actors? How to respond effectively to the needs of a country which is rebuilding itself?
Over a year after the beginning of the war, the aim is to start exploring the role that charities and institutions, both public and private, can play in the reconstruction process in Ukraine.
The programme is structured around half a day covering four topics: partnership, impact investing, digital transformation and legal regulation, taxation and governance.
