The Government of Ukraine is implementing the reform of public investment management (PIM), which changes approaches to planning, evaluation, implementation and monitoring public investment projects at all levels – from the state to the community.

To help communities adapt to these changes, the Ministry for Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine in cooperation with the DREAM Project Office has prepared a Guide answering the most frequently asked questions about the PIM reform:

• What is the medium-term plan for priority public investments?
• How are public investment projects and public investment programmes designed and evaluated?
• How to develop the unified public investment portfolio of the community?
• What legal acts regulate the reform?
• What is the timeline for implementing the reform in 2025?

All materials can be downloaded here.

The public investment management reform aims to:

• unify the approach to allocating public investment based on strategic documents,
• form a holistic vision of the country’s development,
• improve the quality and transparency of decision-making,
• increase the trust of international partners and investors,
• and most importantly, strengthen the capacity and capabilities of communities to work with public investment projects and programmes.

The DREAM ecosystem is the digital foundation of the PIM reform. The DREAM Project Office is responsible for the implementation and development of the system with the support of the UK Digitalisation for Growth, Integrity and Transparency (UK DIGIT) project, implemented by the Eurasia Foundation and funded by UK Dev. The executive implementation partner is Open Contracting.
