As part of the implementation of the Association Agreement between Ukraine and the European Union, Ukraine has taken a course of transformation towards the sustainable development of the agrarian economy and rural communities and has already taken important steps in this direction through numerous reforms (in particular, land and administrative reforms). However, war and crisis exacerbate economic, social and environmental problems and significantly complicate the achievement of the goals of sustainable development of the agricultural sector and rural areas.
What are the challenges faced by agricultural producers, politicians and change communities in the context of sustainable development, etc.? What can politicians and society do to overcome these challenges and support the national course of sustainable development? How do communities and agribusiness adapt to changing framework conditions? How important is sustainable development for the reconstruction of Ukraine?
These and other questions regarding the economic, social and environmental aspects of the sustainable development of the Ukrainian agricultural sector and rural areas will be discussed with representatives of politics, society, agribusiness and science.
