Investment Mobilization for Infrastructure Reconstruction
Ukraine’s Ministry for Communities and Territories Development, led by Oleksiy Kuleba, reports major progress in attracting investment for rebuilding infrastructure. Between September 2024 and July 2026, the ministry secured $3.177 billion. These funds are earmarked for developing and restoring infrastructure assets, including housing, transportation, municipal services, and critical facilities.
Currently, the ministry manages a portfolio of 60 international agreements worth over $8.5 billion. Since September 2024, it has brought in $3.2 billion in grants and loans across more than 38 deals. The primary tool for raising this capital has been the Ukraine Investment Framework, implemented under the Ukraine Facility program. Key partners in this initiative include:
- European Investment Bank
- World Bank
- Council of Europe Development Bank
- KfW
- AFD
- NEFCO
- BGK
Major Milestones and Initiatives
Notable achievements under this effort include the Ukraine Recovery Conference (URC-2026), which raised over €1.5 billion. Additionally, the Ukraine Transport Support Fund was launched and has already received its first international contributions. A key highlight is the first large-scale concession project during the full-scale war—a container terminal in the port of Chornomorsk, with potential investments of at least $300 million. The ministry also presented a portfolio of over 30 public-private partnership projects.
As part of these initiatives, the Rebuild Ukraine Intelligence Platform was launched—a digital AI-powered tool designed to support reconstruction planning.
Alona Shkrum, a ministry representative, stated: 'International cooperation and investment attraction are the first step, but effective project management allows us to see tangible results in the form of restored transport, critical, and social infrastructure.'
Attracting investment for infrastructure restoration is a crucial phase in Ukraine’s post-conflict recovery. The experience gained through international collaboration and public-private partnerships can lay the groundwork for the country’s long-term economic development. The successful implementation of these initiatives reflects growing confidence among international partners in Ukraine’s governance and its ability to manage resources effectively, which in turn could encourage further investment down the line.
In addition to these funding achievements, the Ukrainian government has recently introduced a series of significant infrastructure projects aimed at enhancing recovery efforts. These initiatives, valued at $5 billion, are crucial for driving the nation's post-war reconstruction and complement the ongoing investment mobilization strategies detailed by the Ministry for Communities and Territories Development.
