While the fight to liberate Ukrainian territory continues, discussions on the reconstruction process have already begun and several proposals have already been circulated by various organisations and stakeholders. Although each proposal for a reconstruction programme contains references to a “green reconstruction”, plans have so far been relatively vague on the precise meaning of this term. Ecoaction, CEE Bankwatch and Berlin Economics discuss what green reconstruction means concretely in different sectors, what barriers to a green reconstruction currently exist, and how an optimal policy mix could overcome these barriers.
