Strengthening Ukraine’s Economic Recovery and Reconstruction: Looking Back and Planning Forward

Please join the CSIS Project on Prosperity and Development for a conversation with Deputy Secretary of State for Management and Resources Richard R. Verma to discuss the work that the Biden Administration has done to further Ukraine’s economic recovery and reconstruction and how the United States can continue to support Ukraine’s modernization going forward. 

Through the CSIS Ukraine Economic Reconstruction Commission and other related workstreams, CSIS has established itself as a leader in planning for Ukrainian reconstruction, and a place for problem-solving and practical thinking about the economic future of Ukraine. In support of this commitment, in September 2023, CSIS hosted the first edition of the “Doing Business in Ukraine” conference, which sought to encourage government and private sector investment in Ukraine. As her first public engagement as U.S. Special Representative for Ukraine’s Economic Recovery, Secretary Penny Pritzker’s keynote address spoke to the important role that the United States plays in supporting Ukraine’s economic recovery, and the immense opportunities the country has to further develop their technology, green energy, agriculture, and metal and mining industries. 

Just over one year later, this event will be an opportunity to outline how the United States has supported Ukraine’s economic transformation, to better understand the financing and implementation challenges that face Ukraine, and assess how the U.S. government and U.S. private sector can continue to help Kyiv chart a future course integrated into the EU and global markets.

This event is made possible through general support to CSIS.
