Summary: | This policy response highlights how Ukraine's regional development and decentralisation reforms, adopted after the 2014 Maidan Revolution, have contributed to the resilience of the country's regions and municipalities following Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine. Based on the OECD report Rebuilding Ukraine by Reinforcing Regional and Municipal Governance, it also sets forth how the achievements of Ukraine's post-2014 multi-level governance reforms can provide the stepping stones for an effective subnational reconstruction and recovery. Finally, it presents concrete recommendations on how policymakers can leverage local expertise and further build subnational capacities to design and implement reconstruction projects and track progress, as well as contribute to longer-term sustainable regional and local development
