Ukraine’s recovery cannot wait until Russia’s invasion is over
The BEARR Trust’s Small Grants Officer, Anna Morgan, attended the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Rome on July 10-11 in her capacity as Programme Manager for Russia and Eurasia and Manager of the Ukraine Forum at the Chatham House think-tank. Here is her article “Ukraine’s recovery cannot wait until Russia’s invasion is over”, in which she stresses that “Perhaps the most striking aspect of this year’s conference was the human dimension. Key themes included the return of refugees, engagement with the Ukrainian diaspora, integration of internally displaced people, and the need for Ukrainian society to prepare for the eventual reintegration of hundreds of thousands of military veterans…Supporting Ukraine’s wartime recovery and reconstruction is a good way to boost resilience by giving Ukrainians a greater sense of confidence in the future.”
