An important phase of the first stage of the project preparation was the development of conceptual notes by project teams, which serve as a preliminary feasibility study. Also, the U-LEAD with Europe Program, in cooperation with the Ministry of Regional Development and the Ministry of Economic Development, decided on the creation of a format for the further dissemination of public-private partnership instruments in amalgamated hromadas.

  Over the three years of fiscal decentralization, local budget revenues grew 2.8 times, from 68.6 billion UAH in 2014 to 192.7 billion UAH in 2017. This was made possible by the empowerment of local self government bodies and their growing interest in increasing their local budget revenue and increasing the efficiency of administering taxes and fees. Also there was an increased volume of state budget support to local authorities for community development and infrastructure development – by 2018 for this provided more than 19 billion UAH

Further improvement should turn the competition into a model event in the area of effective use of public funds.

  In recent years the aviation industry around the world and in Ukraine has developed rapidly. The Ukrainian airline market needs 320 new pilots every year. At the same time, aviation education remains one of the most expensive in terms of the organization of practical training, for pilots in particular. Therefore, in order to maintain and update the existing base of the scientific-production complex of the Flight Academy of the National Aviation University, it is necessary to constantly look for additional sources of financing.

This strategy was initiated and developed by the Ministry of Agrarian Policy in cooperation with local organic market participants and international partners.

  MODERN UKRAINIAN AQUACULTURE: CONDITION AND PROSPECTS

  

  Юрій ШАРИЛО. Директор бюджетної установи «Методично-технологічний центр з аквакультури»

  Yuri SHARYLO. Director of the budgetary institution «Methodological Technological Center for Aquaculture»

  Ukraine possesses a huge reserve of water resources. Ukraine's internal reservoirs, in addition to resources for drinking water or other reserves, include fisheries. There is a potential for the development of Ukrainian aquaculture, which will allow for the implementation of all kinds of fish farming. With our climatic conditions, we have a competitive advantage in aquiculture. It would be wrong of us to not use the existing benefits in aquaculture development and fail to properly update our fish farming and adapt it to a changing environment. Today it is time for amalgamated hromadas to look at fish farming as one of the areas of entrepreneurial activity that can significantly affect local economic development.

  With the ongoing alignment of many institutions and processes of Ukraine with those of the European Union and an increasing interest in the application of international best practice to the socio-economic development of Ukraine, perhaps it is now the right time to reflect upon the role of international agencies in Ukraine and particularly on the role ofinternational financial institutions (IFI). They are key partners in the reform process in Ukraine at all levels, including in the regions. It is essential that Ukrainian agencies and institutions do not miss an opportunity for cooperation with them. In the end of the day, they represent an extra source of know-how and a source of finance for specific projects that different regions may wish to develop.

  Oleg PILAT. Expert in the project «Open spatial planning»

  Investor-builders report that the lack of open access to information about zoning is one of the significant problems for their activities. According to the results of studies conducted by the Office of Effective Regulation (BRDO) in 2017, it was revealed that only 8% of town planning documentation are published on the Internet. Until now, the urban cadastres of Ukraine have not been created – as a result, it is very difficult to obtain information needed for planning large infrastructure facilities. The BRDO project team has identified a concrete action plan, the implementation of which will provide a solution to this problem.

  Yuri PALEKHA. Deputy Director for Scientific Work, Head of the GIS Center of the State Enterprise «DIPROMISTO», Doctor of Geography, Professor

  Lately a lot has been said аbout urban cadastres, even more than about land cadastres. However, there are very few cases of the real implementation of urban cadastres, although the Cabinet of Ministers document «On the Urban Cadastre of Settlements» appeared in 1993. Successful implementation of a system of urban cadastres at the national, regional and local levels depends on solving three problems: the introduction of a unified digital basis in the state coordinate system, the use of modern software, and updating town-planning documentation. This can only be achieved through the introduction of modern geoinformation technologies and the full use of the benefits of GIS.

  At the initiative of The All-Ukrainian Association of Village and Settlement Councils, with the support of the USAID Agriculture and Rural Development Support Project, the pilot project «Organization of Land Management in the context of the decentralization reform» was implemented in 2017. The Kiptivska amalgamated hromada in Chernihiv region was chosen as as the pilot for the implementation of the proposed new approaches. According to the results of the project, the «Practical Instrument for Land Management for the amalgamated hromadas» was developed – an innovative suite of tools for sustainable community development and improving living standards through effective land management.

  The effectiveness of urban space can be measured by the number and duration of established positive contacts that take place within it, one’s desire to stay in it longer, allowing children to play without fear, being able to see retirees and disabled people managing their daily routines without difficulties. Much effort is required to achieve all this – but without this we will only have uncomfortable, unhealthy and unhygienic urban spaces which are not suited for people with limited mobility, where children need to be gripped firmly by the hand. Where those who can afford a car try not to walk at all, where people are not pleasing to each other, do not establish positive contacts, and do not form a society.

  Iryna BEGMA. Manager of IT Development Solutions for KPMG in Ukraine

  The amalgamated hromadas should become the basic element of an effective system of government in Ukraine with the right to independently address all issues related to school and pre-school education, primary health care, cultural institutions, as well as aspects of local development. The goal setting system used by KPMG in Ukraine for business companies can help amalgamated hromadas evolve and achieve their goals more effectively. Despite the fact that this tool is tailored to the specifics of the work of large companies, it can also become an effective IT tool for the economic growth of amalgamated hromadas and regions. For example, the system can motivate community members to set goals beyond their daily tasks, which can become a driver through which they will develop more ambitious goals which can positively influence economic development.

  WHAT ARE GREENWAYS AND HOW CAN THEY HELP IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF HROMADAS AND LOCAL BUSINESS

  

  Cергій ПІДМОГИЛЬНИЙ. Координатор розвитку мережі Greenways Української асоціації активного та екологічного туризму

  Sergii PIDMOGILNY. Coordinator of the Greenways network development at the Ukrainian Association for Active and Ecological Tourism

  The process of decentralization, which is actively continuing in Ukraine in recent years, has pushed the amalgamated hromadas to actively search for «growth points». A significant number of the amalgamated hromadas see some in the development of green tourism. Abroad, green tourism is actively developing in the form of Greenways – creating multifunctional routes for non-motorized vehicles or walking along natural corridors, historic trade routes, rivers and abandoned railways. Greenways meet the needs of the local population and travelers, contributing to the development of the local economy.
