The government approved investments of 214 billion UAH: which projects will receive funding

According to hvylya.net: The Strategic Investment Council approved the Unified Project Portfolio of public investments for 2026 (UPP-2026), which identifies priority projects for state funding.

The Ministry of Community and Territorial Development noted that this is the result of the government's consistent implementation of public investment management reform.

According to the ministry, the UPP-2026 at the state level consists of 149 projects and programs with a total cost of 11,390 billion UAH. Half of the projects and programs are ongoing, having been funded from the 2025 state budget. 74 new projects and programs have been added. Some already initiated projects with approved funding will be included in the UPP-2026 after further revisions.

Priority projects and programs

'The Ministry of Development has become the initiator of the largest number of investment programs and projects in UPP-2026. More than 55% of public investment projects and programs totaling 4,178 billion UAH have been prepared and submitted jointly with the Recovery Agency, Ukrzaliznytsia, the Administration of Seaports of Ukraine, and Ukrposhta. This concerns 83 projects and programs in our three main sectors: transport, housing, and municipal infrastructure and services,' stated Oleksiy Kubela, Deputy Prime Minister for Recovery - Minister of Community and Territorial Development of Ukraine.

Funding for projects

The total funding requirement for public investment projects in 2026 is 214.7 billion UAH, including 46.4 billion UAH from international financial organizations and donors (loans, grants, state guarantees).

Public investment sectors

At the state level, the UPP is a key element of public investment management. The projects align with the state's priorities for recovery and are coordinated with the Medium-Term Plan for Priority Public Investments (MPPPI).

The UPP includes projects in 12 sectors of transport, energy, housing, municipal infrastructure and services, healthcare, education and science, legal activities and justice, public finance, environment, public services and digitalization, public safety, as well as the social sphere.

In turn, the Unified Project Portfolio consists of separate public investment programs and projects. Subsequently approved programs will be filled with projects from regional and local portfolios. For instance, communities will be able to submit projects for the renovation of apartment buildings to the relevant program in the UPP of the Ministry of Development. Projects will be prioritized as they are part of the program.

Public investments in Ukraine are undergoing significant changes as the Unified Project Portfolio of public investments for 2026 (UPP-2026) has been approved, which includes 149 projects worth over 11 trillion UAH. This is an important step for the country's development, as priority funding areas aimed at improving and developing infrastructure in Ukraine have been identified.
