In Mykolaiv region, almost 38 billion hryvnias worth of reconstruction projects have been planned. Only about fifteen percent of them have been funded.
This is evidenced by data from the Dream digital recovery ecosystem.
Currently, 489 recovery projects in the Mykolaiv region have been registered in the digital ecosystem. The total budget of the projects is UAH 37.87 billion. To date, only UAH 5.64 billion of this amount is available, which is 14.9% of the financial coverage.
Of the UAH 37.87 billion, it is planned to spend UAH 25.10 billion on new construction and UAH 10.14 billion on reconstruction.
In total, there are 345 reconstruction projects in the system, 96 for new construction, and 48 for goods and equipment.
The Mykolaiv community is the leader in the number of projects in the region. 256 initiatives with a total budget of UAH 18.1 billion. However, funding for these projects is currently limited to UAH 2.46 billion.
Restoring the region requires significant financial resources, and the DREAM system is a key tool for coordinating projects and monitoring their funding.
More than six thousand infrastructure facilities have already been restored in Mykolaiv region. In 2024, estimated projects were implemented to restore residential buildings, infrastructure, roads, and bridges at the expense of state and local budgets, as well as with the support of international partners. In total, work was completed on 6,340 objects out of 16,817 damaged ones.
In late December, Ukraine received funding to restore social infrastructure. Odesa and Mykolaiv regions were among the regions that received assistance. The European Investment Bank provided €55 million under the Ukraine Recovery Program.
The funds will be used to reconstruct medical facilities, social housing, schools, heating, water supply and sewage systems, as well as other important social infrastructure facilities. The projects are scheduled to be implemented in 2025 and beyond.
