Ukraine prepares a new economic strategy before the Gdansk recovery conference

The plan is expected to focus on growth, jobs and stronger investment results ahead of a June recovery event

Ukraine is preparing a comprehensive economic strategy intended to support growth and create more jobs inside the country. The work is linked to the activity of the international advisory group on investment attraction and economic development.

The announced priorities are practical: more economic growth, more opportunities for people to remain in Ukraine, and more conditions for businesses to create workplaces despite wartime pressure.

Two tracks of work

The first track is the strategy itself. It should define the steps needed for investment, employment, recovery and private-sector resilience. The second track is preparation for the recovery conference in Gdansk, planned for June.

Such conferences matter when they produce projects rather than declarations. Ukraine needs visible results for resilience and faster reconstruction: financing instruments, project pipelines, investor confidence and clearer coordination between government and partners.

Economic signal

The strategy can become useful if it connects defense-era realities with long-term growth. Jobs, infrastructure, energy resilience, export capacity and regional recovery all have to work together. For investors, the message is simple: Ukraine is trying to turn recovery into a structured economic agenda, not only an emergency response.
