Kherson has launched a pilot project called "My City," an online platform designed to provide faster and easier communication between the community and the city administration.
This was announced on Telegram by Yaroslav Shanko, head of the Kherson MBA.
The main goal is to provide citizens with the opportunity to receive important information about the city in real time, as well as conveniently leave requests, submit proposals to the administration and use electronic services. In addition, the application provides for the function of participating in surveys.
It is noted that "My City" is available to a wide range of users, as it functions as a mobile application on Android and iOS platforms. The project was developed by the NGO Digital Community Development and Izumrud Trading and Procurement Company LLC.
It should be noted that Izumrud is headed by Roman Romaniuk, the son of former MP Oleh Romaniuk, who is on the Corruption Register. Romaniuk was fined in 2016 for violating the requirements for preventing and resolving conflicts of interest, which resulted in his loss of the position of the head of the land commission. Later, in 2020, the police opened criminal proceedings against the official under the article on violation of property protection duties.
Earlier, three new digital spaces of modern technologies for children and youth were opened in the Velyko Oleksandrivska community of Beryslav district.
The digital centers have become not only a place for learning, but also a platform for developing creativity, communicating with peers, and receiving psychological support, the post says.
Children will be able to participate in online lessons, explore new topics, and communicate with friends from other cities and countries. The opening of digital spaces became possible thanks to the joint efforts of the Association for Innovative and Digital Education (AIDE: EduHub), the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF Ukraine), the Japanese government, and the Kherson Regional State Administration.
