About the project:

 In October 2019, Agriteam Canada launched a new five-year project in Ukraine: Support to Ukraine’s Reforms for Governance (SURGe).

 SURGe’s Ultimate Outcome is to help the Government of Ukraine (GoU) to deliver governance and economic reforms that better respond to the needs of its citizens. To achieve this, the Project will strategically enhance and strengthen the GoU’s reform management functions, namely its capacity to undertake planning and analysis of reforms that consider citizen impact, and to implement these reforms.

Reform initiative and position summary:

 SURGe will provide technical assistance to selected communities in pilot oblasts to improve their investment governance, so that communities have capacity to select and prioritise public investment projects based on citizen needs, and are able to efficiently implement these projects. These approaches will be then institutionalised at the national level.

 The expert team will be deployed to the Ministry of Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine.

 The goal of the reform initiative: communities and regions drive local investment that creates jobs and enhances regional economic capabilities.

3. Local/Regional Development Analyst and Public Finance Adviser who will be responsible for capacity development and advice to pilot communities/regions on socio-economic analysis, development programming and public finance management for improved investment governance.
