"Rebuilding Ukraine Principles, Policies, and the Role of the European Union?"
Thursday, March 2, 2023
Online: On Zoom
EIEF annunced the workshop, jointly organized by the Centre for Economic Policy Research, Solvay Brussels School of Economics and Management (Université Libre de Bruxelles)-Public Policy House, and the Global Economic Challenges Network at Georgetown University. February 24, 2023 marked one year since the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The reconstruction of Ukraine cannot be about rebuilding the country to its pre-war state; rather, it should strive for a deep modernization of the country. All critical elements of the economy and society will have to undergo reforms to help Ukraine escape the post-Soviet legacy and become a full-fledged democracy with a modern economy, strong institutions, and a powerful defense sector. This presentation and discussion, based on the CEPR Paris Report: Rebuilding Ukraine: Principles and Policies (2022), addressed opportunities and challenges in this effort.
