Side Event UCR TEST Veronika 10.06.2024 The 2024 Ukraine Recovery Conference (URC) in Berlin provides an opportunity to re-set the global policy framework around a concrete plan of action that links Ukraine’s immediate economic needs in the war effort with long-term re-development goals. Bild: Urheber: FES There is need for high quality policy analysis and research from a range of perspectives to feed intothe discussions of these key themes. This expert conference will seek to play a similar role to the 2023 event hosted by the London School of Economics and Political Science at the London URC. Our aim is to gather experts together in order to create a forum that enriches the subsequent discussions taking place in and around the URC. Goals of the Side Event: - To discuss ways in which Ukraine’s immediate economic needs, strategies for reconstruction and its long-term economic perspectives can be aligned. - To formulate policy initiatives that can be presented at the URC. - To build networks among thinkers, decision-makers, stakeholders. - To promote creative thinking about how to reach the shared goal of achieving a prosperous, stable, socially just and democratic future for Ukraine. - To collate, circulate and discuss written expert analysis from a range of perspectives that can be shared with policy makers and delegates to the 2024 URC.
