Continuing to share key events from last week’s visit to Switzerland. In addition to studying energy efficiency in urban management through examples from various Swiss cities, we had the opportunity to establish a partnership and sign a Memorandum of Cooperation with HUB Rebuild Ukraine | Switzerland (Zug, Switzerland)!
Together with Oksana Marusenko, President of HUB Rebuild Ukraine | Switzerland, and co-founder Adrian Heimberg, we discussed the current and strategic needs of the community, as well as key priorities for the reconstruction and development of the Trostyanets city hromada.
Recognizing the urgent need for sustainable recovery and investment in Ukraine following the devastation caused by the war, and sharing a common vision for rebuilding through innovative, high-quality, and environmentally responsible practices, we signed a Memorandum of Cooperation.
