The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine approved the Medium-Term Plan for Priority Public Investment for 2027–2029. The document comes into force upon the adoption of the Budget Declaration for 2027–2029.

The Plan aims to optimise the use of budgetary resources, increase transparency in the spending of public funds, and strengthen the integration of investments into the budgetary planning system. This approach will help to focus funding on priority projects and programmes for citizens.

The approval of the new Plan is a logical step in the reform of public investment management, which ensures the continuity of the medium-term investment planning process in close alignment with strategic priorities. During the implementation of the previous plan for 2026–2028, investment priorities were aligned with strategic planning documents, a unified approach to project evaluation was introduced, work began on forming a Unified Project Portfolio of State Public Investment, and the necessary funding for project implementation was included in the state budget for 2026.

The Plan for 2027–2029 covers 18 priority sectors for public investment, including transport, education and science, healthcare, energy, municipal infrastructure, the social sector, mine action, and digital transformation. These sectors comprise 44 sub-sectors and 67 key areas of public investment, aligned with strategic planning documents.

Four common strategic objectives for public investment have also been identified: energy efficiency, digitalisation, climate change response, gender equality, and accessibility. These objectives are essential for sustainable development and the promotion of social justice.

The total amount of public investment for 2027–2029 is UAH 270.9 billion, including: UAH 123.7 billion in 2027; UAH 82.3 billion in 2028; and UAH 64.9 billion in 2029.

Public investment of UAH 270.9 billion for 2027–2029 will be funded from:

• UAH 150.8 billion – the General Fund of the State Budget (including UAH 6.0 billion from the State Fund for Regional Development);
• UAH 114.5 billion – funds from international financial organisations and foreign governments (including UAH 14.6 billion in international technical assistance and grants);
• UAH 4.9 billion – state guarantees;
• UAH 0.7 billion – special state funds.

The largest share of investment has been allocated to:

• education and science – UAH 78.5 billion;
• transport and postal services – UAH 73.0 billion;
• municipal infrastructure and services – UAH 46.5 billion;
• healthcare – UAH 25.3 billion;
• energy sector – UAH 17.1 billion.

The Plan was developed taking into account the Ukraine Facility and the findings of the Fifth Rapid Damage and Needs Assessment (RDNA5), which estimates Ukraine’s total restoration and reconstruction needs at USD 587.7 billion – more than 12% higher than the previous estimate.

The Plan lays the foundation for boosting the trust of international partners and private investors by defining clear government priorities, ensuring the predictability of public policy, and guaranteeing the transparency of planning processes. This will facilitate the effective mobilisation of international funding and the development of public-private partnership mechanisms.

State funding will only be available to those projects and programmes that align with the key areas of public investment set out in the Plan and are included in the Unified Project Portfolio of State Public Investments.
