The URC2025 will take place in Rome on 10 and 11 July 2025. It will be the fourth Ukraine Recovery Conference, continuing the annual series of high-level political events dedicated to the swift recovery and long-term reconstruction of Ukraine since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale war of aggression against Ukraine.
Governments, international organisations, financial institutions, businesses, regions, municipalities and civil society will come together, united by a shared commitment to strengthen the resilience of Ukraine for as long as needed. The participants will represent the various stakeholder groups, demonstrating their strong engagement for Ukraine’s future.
The conference will reflect the Lugano principles, including a “whole of society” approach to recovery through the meaningful participation of a broad range of stakeholders.
The URC2025 will revolve around four thematic dimensions: the Business Dimension, the Human Dimension, the Local and Regional Dimension and the EU Dimension. These same Dimensions shaped the works of the URC2024. They are still the most relevant to the resilience and reconstruction of Ukraine, and maintaining them will give continuity to the work done, and the discussions held in Berlin in June 2024.
Upholding the spirit of the Ukraine Reform Conferences that took place up until 2022, the URC2025 will also showcase Ukrainian reform progress in the context of its economic resilience and the EU accession process.
Important crosscutting issues such as macroeconomic stability, resilience and security, infrastructure, housing, energy, climate protection, green recovery, culture, healthcare, gender issues, education, environment, science-technology-innovation and disabilities will be integrated into the above-mentioned dimensions. Moreover, a Recovery Forum – and a connected Business Fair – will be an integral part of the URC2025.
