Analytical report and database of typical projects: a resource for communities and CSOs

With the support of the International Renaissance Foundation within the framework of the Impulse project, the Resource Center prepared an analytical report that became the basis for forming a base of typical reuse projects for communities and public organizations.

The analytical work is based on a systematic analysis of requests from territorial communities and practical experience in supporting infrastructure and social projects. The study analyzed 20 territorial communities in 6 regions of Ukraine, taking into account different security and socio-economic contexts.

Key analytics results

The analysis showed that communities, regardless of region, form a similar structural request, in particular in the areas of:

• educational infrastructure;
• energy efficiency and energy independence;
• social and medical infrastructure;
• security and civil protection;
• water supply and drainage;
• youth, sports and cultural infrastructure.

The recurrence of such needs creates opportunities for typification of technical solutions, scaling of projects, and application of a portfolio approach to their implementation.

Database of typical reuse projects

Based on the analytical report, the Resource Center is forming a database of typical reuse projects, which will be available to local governments and public organizations.

The database will include:

• structured descriptions of typical projects;
• indicative budgets and readiness levels;
• implementation logic and expected social effect;
• recommendations for further refinement and funding attraction.

For CSOs and LSGs

For public organizations and local governments, the database of typical projects will become a practical tool that will help:

• to form project initiatives for their communities more quickly;
• rely on analytics and proven solutions;
• reduce the time for preparing applications;
• improve the quality of projects submitted for funding.

The formation of a base of typical projects is part of a systemic approach to community development and is aimed at moving from isolated initiatives to more coordinated and effective solutions.

A detailed analytical report and access to the database of typical reuse projects will be published later. Information about opening access will be posted on the Resource Center website.
