European investments in Ukrainian children
On December 17, village head Anton Ovsiyenko signed contracts with contractors, giving the green light to work in Sviatopetrivske, Horenychi and Bilohorodka. The lion's share of the financing (80%) is provided by the European Investment Bank under the "Ukraine Recovery" program; the remaining 20% is covered by the community budget.
This project is not just a "cosmetic repair" but the actual construction of new educational infrastructure adapted to modern requirements of safety and comfort.
What will change in the community?
- Sviatopetrivskyi Academic Lyceum: The facility's area will more than double. This will allow the opening of 20 new classrooms, which is critically important for a rapidly growing community.
- Horenychi Lyceum: The educational institution will receive not only a new building but also a complete reconstruction of the old building according to a revised modern design.
- Kindergarten "Barvinok" (Bilohorodka): The facility will expand to 14 groups. The site will be equipped with the same number of modern playgrounds and summer pavilions.
"This is an investment in the future of the Bilohorodka community. We worked on this for almost four years, and now we have a clear plan: in two years children will have modern and safe conditions for development."
— Anton Ovsiyenko, Bilohorodka village head
Oversight and timeline
The total built-up area will increase several times. The village council promises strict oversight of the work schedule, since the implementation of this project is a matter of honor for the community. Construction is scheduled for two years, and it will become one of the largest examples of successful cooperation between Ukrainian local authorities and international financial institutions.
