The event brought together representatives of central government, local self-government, international financial institutions, the expert community, and business for a substantive discussion on the state of public investment reform and its practical implementation.
The discussion focused on the key factors that determine the quality of the state’s investment policy today:
🔸 alignment of the investment portfolio with available financial resources
🔸 approaches to project prioritization
🔸 quality of project preparation and readiness for implementation
🔸 institutional capacity at both central and local levels
🔸 effectiveness of investment management as a driver of economic resilience
Special attention was given to the challenges that emerged in 2025, including limited resources, the need for rapid decision-making, and at the same time the necessity to maintain high-quality project preparation, as well as the demand from communities for simpler and more standardized approaches.
We Build Ukraine systematically supports public investment reform through analytics, dialogue with communities, public authorities, and international partners, as well as through the development of practical solutions for its implementation.
Public investment reform is a key element of the recovery architecture. It is not only about procedures, but about changing the logic of decision-making:
from the number of projects ➡️ to their realism, from formal selection ➡️ to achieving results.
The PIM system determines which projects receive funding, how they are prepared and implemented, and how effectively the limited resources of the state and international support are used.
