Abstract

In the modern conditions of Ukraine's post-war recovery, achieving sustainable development goals is extremely important, and these goals were significantly affected by the war. The study aims to determine priorities, tasks and measures related to the post-war recovery of Ukraine, particularly in the context of sustainable development, and to explore the possibilities of adapting successful global cases to Ukrainian realities.


The study uses the method of comparative analysis of global cases of recovery from military conflicts and their adaptation to the conditions of Ukraine. In addition, analytical methods were used to assess financial instruments and the legal framework governing the recovery process. The materials were searched in scientific databases like Scopus and Web of Science. Ukraine's national legislative and financial resources were also used to analyse the legal framework and financial instruments. All articles in the database were reviewed from 1950 (the earliest year available in the field) to 2023. The search yielded 1154 articles from 2014 to 2023. The final focus was research on the role of post-war recovery strategy development, resulting in a final sample of 264 articles.


The study found that innovative approaches to recovery can significantly speed up the process of reconstructing Ukraine's economy and infrastructure. The scientific novelty consists in the development of recommendations for implementing international experience in the restoration of Ukraine, taking into account its specific conditions.
