NV to hold conference on post-war reconstruction, plans and strategy
NV will hold a new event “Big day with NV. Dialogues on Ukraine’s restoration” in Kyiv from 10.30 a.m. to 5.30 p.m. on June 8.
This is an independent platform for discussing post-war reconstruction and hearing from leading experts.
About 8 million Ukrainians went abroad. At least 5 million lost their jobs. More than 150,000 houses, 25,000 km of roads, 3,000 educational institutions, 344 bridges, and 426 large enterprises have been damaged or completely destroyed. Ukraine lost a third of its GDP as a result of the Russian invasion. The amount of direct damage to infrastructure alone reaches $143.8 billion. 30% of the country is mined. It will take at least $500 billion and up to $1 trillion to get things right and grow again.
So many crippled destinies and painful losses...
The war continues. But every day, having joined forces, Ukrainians come closer to victory and are already starting early reconstruction work. How exactly should post-war reconstruction take place, what will it cost, and whose vision to use? How will Ukrainian business be involved in building new at Ukraine?
Let’s talk about it on June 8.
Speakers will include U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine, Bridget Brink; Ukrainian Minister for Communities, Territories, and Infrastructure Development, Oleksandr Kubrakov; Dragon Capital CEO, Tomáš Fiala; Regional Director of NEQSOL Holding Ukraine, Volodymyr Lavrenchuk; Ukrainian Defense Minister, Oleksii Reznikov; Executive Director of Union of Ukrainian Entrepreneurs, Kateryna Hlazkova; Managing Partner of McKinsey & Company in Ukraine, Oleksandr Kravchenko; Kyiv Mayor, Vitali Klitschko; Naftogaz Board Chair, Oleksiy Chernyshov; and others.
Prior registration is required to participate in the event. Find all the details here.
An online broadcast will also take place at all NV venues. Stay tuned for updates.
NV has been actively holding lectures and discussion panels for over five years, featuring special guests like former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine William Taylor, U.S. historian Francis Fukuyama, former U.S. Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul, American-Swedish economist Anders Åslund, co-author of the “Why Nations Fail” bestseller James Robinson, and others.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
